Daan Manneke

Daan Manneke was born on November 7, 1939 in Kruiningen (Zeeland). His surname - betraying his roots - is derived from the Flemish mannekijn, from which French and English have taken their word ‘mannequin’. His predominantly Flemish ancestry is interrupted by a lone Spanish soldier who remained in Zeeland during the Eighty Years’ War. From those few drops of Latin blood Manneke inherited a broad and decidedly un-Dutch view of the world that, via the writer Gezelle, carried into the land of Verlaine and Rimbaud. He is a farmer’s son, bound to the earth and the seasons.

Luc Brewaeys: Haydn ? / The Zappa Album

BREWAEYS MEETS ZAPPA “Les extrèmes se touchent”, is sometimes said. The saying certainly applies to this concert about Luc Brewaeys, who took these words as his motto. Ten years after Brewaeys’ death, numerous ensembles, orchestras and concert halls join forces to provide a rich cross-section of the music of one of Flanders’ most remarkable composers.

Our Team’s Picks

Composers in the crosshairs of our attention
Composer

Maxim Shalygin

January 30, 1985

"Creativity is an unconscious act of insanity, in a burst of which the truth is born. No matter how beautiful or disgusting it may seem to people far from madness, its value is beyond doubt, both for the author and for those able to sense its invisible beauty. After all, gratitude for endless trials and suffering brings joy and blissful emptiness… Being shocked by music is about pain turning into beauty and getting under your skin, taking away your breath; about everything stopping to move. I want to be scratched inside by sound and experience the fleeting, invisible beauty." - Maxim Shalygin

Composer

Jan-Peter de Graaff

Netherlands, 1992,
"De Graaff is een alleskunner en een echte en helder opflitsende komeet aan het muzikale firmament die aan niemand ongemerkt voorbij kan gaan." - Maarten Brandt, Opus Klassiek
"De Graaff is een tovenaar met orkestkleuren in een taal die weliswaar van nu is, maar harmonisch ook vaak vertrouwd klinkt." - Paul Herruer, Dagblad van het Noorden
"De Graaffs grootste kracht schuilt in een paradox: stilstand die zindert van spanning." - Guido van Oorschot, De Volkskrant 
 
"Zijn muziek is in essentie atonaal, maar doordat ze niet is doodgesystematiseerd en De Graaff in de contouren en het verloop van zijn melodieën nog steeds romantisch durft te zijn, wordt de luisteraar met zachte, maar dwingende hand meegevoerd in het abstracte verhaal dat hij wil vertellen. Een grote troef is hierbij zijn orkestratiekunst. De muziek is kleurrijk, blijft altijd helder en verrassend." - Erik Voermans, Het Parool
 
"Had iemand mij van te voren voorspeld dat in een programma van Bach, Bartók en Jan-Peter de Graaff het stuk van de laatste mij het meest zou boeien, dan had ik dat niet geloofd. - Dingeman van Wijnen, Friesch Dagblad
