Concordia still continues to show theatre performances

In the coming weeks, you can enjoy the following livestreams at Concordia: Storyteller, Shaffy, Next Generation, Most Beautiful Songs and Cameretten finalists. More information on the performances below.

BOI AKIH - Storyteller

Theatre programmer Ellen saw this band a while back at Podium Witteman and thought it was so cool that she immediately booked them. Especially for this evening, there will be a special introduction and interaction between audience and players. Livestreamers can ask questions via the Concordia chat, which Ellen will submit to the musicians at the end of the concert.

Storyteller tells a story in colours and sounds, about a journey full of unexpected encounters. Modern jazz and improvised music effortlessly interweaves BOI AKIH with folk traditions from all over the world to create an unconventional yet completely recognisable and accessible sound of their own.

Gerard Alderliefste - My Adventures With Ramses Shaffy

Gerard Alderliefste accompanied Shaffy during the unexpected and by few believed possible encore of his career. The revival of the song 'Laat me -Vivre', re-recorded by Shaffy and Alderliefste in 2005, led to a series of performances throughout the Netherlands. Gerard describes the adventures they had along the way and thus the birth of a special friendship.

In Doors - Next Generation "FROM OWN BODY"

Five musicians from Twente: Charlotte Basalo Vaquez (violin), Martine Velthuis (violin), Lotte Grotholt (viola), Simon Velthuis (cello) and Rebecca Fransen (double bass). As the title suggests, all five musicians are from Twente. Currently still studying or having just graduated, they are part of a new generation of musicians. Lotte: ''We want to make classical music more accessible to young people'' The programme includes: Mozart's best-known work "Ein kleine Nachtmusik", but also the film music from Lord of the Rings.

Want to know more about this performance? Then check out the vlogs on Concordia's social media channels. Here, Lotte is interviewed about her great passion and what makes this performance so special.

Most beautiful songs edition April

Most Beautiful Songs is an evening where singer-songwriters perform their own songs. They do this solo or in a small line-up. Each edition offers a stage to people who are each at a different point in their development/career, bringing together amateurs and (semi-)professionals. Participating in the Mooiste Liedjes edition in April are HSTR and Géonne Hartman.

24-year-old singer HSTR was born in Zimbabwe and grew up in Enschede. On her upcoming singles, she sings about 'coming of age' experiences that we all recognise from our own collection of memories.

In a crowd she would not stand out so much but Géonne Hartman's voice compels listening. Her debut album produced by Tessa Rose Jackson (Someone), together with her band, became a vast landscape of melodic and catchy indie folk songs. About loving and letting go, seas and mountains.

Cameretten finalists

The Cameretten finalists tour theatres, pop stages and library halls to present their prize-winning show to you. Uncomfortable sketches, recognisable characters and hilarious jokes: during the finalists' tour all sorts of things will pass by. Like sucking on a magic ball. During these evenings, the artists of the future make flying hours on stage. And you can say from now on: 'I saw those comedians before they sold out stadiums.' Concordia Young member Marie-Claire: 'What makes Cameretten extra fun is the different comedians performing, always a racy mix of different kinds of humour and sarcasm.'
