November Music 2021 kicked off on Friday 5 November with a sold-out Bosch Requiem composed this time by Hawar Tawfiq. The kick-off weekend featured a variety of concerts including FAQ's electronic music nights and Dez Mona's beautiful pop songs with baroque orchestra B.O.X. November Music continues until 14 November. Some 55 more concerts at the interface of contemporary composed, jazz, new world music, pop and music theatre lie ahead.

 Zo staan er diverse werken van festivalcomponisten Rebecca Saunders en Kaija Saariaho op het programma. Het Franse koor Accentus voert een nieuwe compositie uit van de befaamde Finse componiste Kaija Saariaho, terwijl Ensemble Modern de minutieus geconstrueerde klankvelden van de Britse componiste Rebecca Saunders tot leven brengt.

 Jazz en hedendaagse wereldmuziek is er van onder anderen Sons of Kemet, The Gurdijeff Ensemble, gitarist Julian Lage en de pianisten Vijay Iyer, Brad Mehlda en Isfar Sarabski. Verder geeft Metropole Orkest op de slotdag van het festival een spectaculair concert met zanger en multi-instrumentalist Louis Cole.

Ook zijn de (inter)nationale topensembles weer goed vertegenwoordigd tijdens November Music 2021. Het Berlijnse collectief s t a r g a z e speelt het nieuwe werk Highdive van Morris Kliphuis en Lucky Fonz III, een opdrachtwerk van November Music. Asko|Schönberg voert het nieuwe werk Odysseus uit van Componist des Vaderlands Calliope Tsoupaki. Andere ensembles die hun opwachting maken tijdens November Music 2021 zijn Ragazze Quartet, Meta4 en Cello Octet Amsterdam.

About November Music

November Music is the festival for all adventurous music lovers. Every year, it brings together the most idiosyncratic and progressive creators and musicians from all over the world. Not with the flow or against it, but with new, own currents. It is precisely by giving a place to all these different sounds that November Music allows a personal and individual story to be heard, just as the makers themselves do.

Experience modern composed music, jazz, world music, musical theatre, pop, installations and genres you never thought possible yourself. November Music creates encounters and challenges creators to jump into the deep end.
