Violinist Merel Vercammen and cellist Maya Fridman, known for their expressive chamber music playing, pay tribute to Sofia Gubaidulina and her Astreja ensemble, which focused on improvisation. They will play compositions from their album Rejoice, with works by composers who, like Gubaidulina, were inspired by nature, such as Vasks and Shalygin. Two-part inventions by Bach will also be heard as a starting point for improvisations in the spirit of Astreja. The tribute ends with Gubaidulina's powerful work 'Rejoice' for violin and cello.

DOMANI: STAGE FOR TOMORROW
In the heart of Venlo, in the centuries-old 1416 Ursula Chapel, the music of tomorrow is given a stage. While stained-glass windows and centuries-old ceiling paintings breathe history, today's artists connect past and future with their music.

This season, too, we present a diverse cultural programme. From classical concerts to worldly sounds, from singer-songwriters to jazz. The unique acoustics and atmospheric setting bring music up close and provide a special encounter between artist and audience.

At Domani, there is always something to discover. Of course you are welcome to hear the artists you already know and love. But don't forget to be surprised by a concert you don't know yet. Our programming is compiled with care and guarantees quality.
