Robert Lambermont, Anna van Nieukerken, Petra van Oort and Laura Sandee will play works by Simeon ten Holt on Tuesday and Wednesday after Easter.

The Natalon Quartet (formerly Rondane Quartet) will play two works by the Bergen composer Simeon ten Holt in De Duif. Pianist Robert Lambermont had a close relationship with the composer, who wrote about this in his memoirs: “Robert understood better than anyone that the performance of the full-length pieces (after Canto Ostinato) cannot simply be arranged with a few rehearsals or by skilled pianists, but requires a period of maturation that amounts to a laborious process of conquest.”

The pianists of the Natalon Quartet, praised for their interpretations of Ten Holt’s five full-length compositions for four keyboard instruments, have been playing together for over eighteen years. This translates into unparalleled and crystal-clear interplay. Four grand pianos, one sound.

Canto Ostinato inspires, moves and makes you forget time. The Natalon Quartet, four Fazioli grand pianos and De Duif: the perfect ingredients for an unforgettable musical adventure for both the audience and the pianists. These Canto Ostinato performances have become part of a festive concert tradition at Stadsherstel, where the authentic sound of Simeon ten Holt’s music is central, the pianists continue to challenge each other musically and therefore provide a special experience every time!
