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.

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!

HOW IT ALL STARTED......
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. 😀
