Daan Geysen: Keep Going! (Inspired by Canto Ostinato)
In recent decades it has become an absolute ‘love it or hate it’ classic: Simeon ten Holt’s Canto Ostinato. In January 2023, a Simeon ten Holt Day was even organized at TivoliVredenburg, where composers could pitch a piece in the spirit of the Canto. Composer and performer Daan Geysen won the pitch and as a result his piece will be heard on the opening night of Gaudeamus Festival 2023.
Daan Geysen’s piece Keep Going! became a piece for strings, vocals, synthesizers and dancers, using motion sensors to drive electronic sounds. Together, the performers sculpt a dynamic score lasting about an hour.
