About this concert
The Bijlmer Parktheater and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra are joining forces again. This time, violinist Coraline Groen and multi-instrumentalist Stanley Clementina will present a fascinating mix of European classical music and traditional musical styles of the Caribbean region, such as ‘seú’, the ceremonial music on the plantations. Both Groen and Clementina are bringing musician friends, for an evening of music by Césaria Evora, George Gershwin, Joseph Haydn, Rudy Plaate and others. Come to the Bijlmer Parktheater on 3 December and enjoy this truly international musical mix.
About the Bijlmer Parktheater - At the Bijlmer Parktheater new stories are developed, artists are given free rein to develop artistically, and the audience feels at home. The lively, intimate and welcoming theater boasts a unique programme giving space to different identities, traditions, cultures and cultural expressions and where people find meaning in diversity.
By embracing Bijlmer Klassiek in 2022, the Concertgebouw Orchestra took over from its violist Michael Gieler, who organized the series for ten years with the Bijlmer Parktheater.
