О событии

The New Amsterdam Clarinet Quartet and Nadia Wijzenbeek travel to New York to perform works byBernstein, Dvořák and Gershwin, thus evoking the vibrant feeling of a metropolis.

West Side Story

With his West Side Story, Leonard Bernstein told the story of the real New York: different cultures, dangers and people who strive for a better life. The New Amsterdam Clarinet Quartet made a special arrangement of the musical for clarinets and violin. With Nadia Wijzenbeek, the West Side Story plays like you never heard it before.

New Amsterdam Clarinet Quartet

Ode aan Amsterdam, the debut album of the New Amsterdam Clarinet Quartet, was recently released. Today it continues with an ode to New Amsterdam — better known as New York. Starting with parts from Bernstein's On the town, it travels through exciting New York, New York. The Largo from Dvořák's Ninth Symphony expresses his vision of the new world. Van Gershwin sounds the swinging Cuban Overture. The New Amsterdam Clarinet Quartet has already played in tram 3 and on the A1, during a traffic jam. Like no other, these men bring the vibrant feeling of a metropolis to the Small Hall.
