Phion 

MUSIC EDUCATION IS IMPORTANT!

Just before June 1, I received a call from the Phion's production manager; a co principal was needed for an educational project.

During and after my studies, I played almost weekly in orchestras. Most in the Rotterdam Philharmonic and the then Gelders Orchestra (now Phion). Around 2010 I stopped doing that, because at the time I felt it didn't really suit me. So I was a bit surprised that after all this time they still managed to find me. I was looking forward to meeting new people again, but especially the educational aspect really appealed to me. It is now so very important that children are allowed to listen to and experience music. 

​

​

A primary school teacher: 'Super to see what the orchestra achieved with the children with this concert. The build-up was very well done, even at the end of the concert the children were enthralled! Very impressive. The narrator was able to hold the children's attention well and we thought his role in this was excellent.'

Phion: 
'Due to great success, we are therefore doing another interactive concert with groups 5 to 8. Everything that is normally not usual at a classical concert is now allowed. Singing, dancing, making a rain choir, drumming on your body... Indeed, all this action is actually prescribed! We are very happy to play Concert for Rafiq again after a long time.

Together with the orchestra and narrator Emile Zeldenrust, pupils sing the moving and exciting story of 11-year-old Rafiq, who comes to the Netherlands alone as a refugee.

Pupils prepare the concert in class with the help of a teaching package. In June, all pupils come to the theatre for an unforgettable experience.

Chamber Music Course Noordwijk

With mainly young talent from the Sweelinck Academy Amsterdam, together with very fine colleagues, I prepared the most beautiful chamber music. By the sea, so with inspiring views, I stayed in the lovely hotel Huis ter Duin.


 

Heemstede Cello Course

With a number of talented cellists, I spent a 3 days in beautiful surroundings and in a fine estate. They worked hard and made great progress. Very happy to be able to do this!




 

Prinses Christina Concours 

On 17-18-19 February, as chairman of the jury of the PCC in Region West 1, I got to listen and watch all kinds of special children again. It is so special to see all these talents passionately involved with music. The enormously high level of the candidates was striking. And that young age...really incredible. Sometimes it is hard to imagine from my own perspective; after all, I only started playing the cello myself at the age of 16, so I never presented myself in this role. Very moving! I am lucky with my amazing profession!

 

What a joy, happiness and beautiful music during the 

4th OCRUM MUZIEKFESTIVAL november 1-6 2022

I am incredibly thankful for my job: working with beautiful and talented students from all over the world. In a short time seeing them grow and improve in themselves and the music

HOW IT ALL STARTED......

A few weeks ago a colleague send me this old picture. Time flies! At that time I played the cello only a very short time, but I already had the fantastic opportunity to play in this very nice string orchestra. I am super grateful for that opportunity; without the inspiration and encouragement of violinist and conductor Paul De Meyer I probably wouldn't be the cellist I am now. 😀
