Celebrating the Voice is an evening of musical surprises and enchanting melodies; from the caressing sounds of fado to timeless masterpieces by Bach and Mozart. Get carried away in The Many Within by the beautiful voice of soprano Chen Reiss and the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra. Together they will take you on a journey inspired by the poetry of Kae Tempest.

But there’s more! Explore the extraordinary building of de Doelen with a unique musical itinerary, including a sensational experience on the roof. Be enchanted by the queer poetry-theatre performance I(-)deal and enjoy the refreshing mix of fado, flamenco and contemporary classical music with Beyond Tradition. And if that is not enough, Huub Prins, the effervescent alter ego of Elias Elgersma, will treat you on the roof of de Doelen to a dazzling performance full of Dutch pop songs. And singer and guitarist Stanley Clementina and guests will perform songs from the Caribbean and the soul tradition. The evening at the Doelen will be closed by DJ Edgar Wetzel and further dancing can be done afterwards at TR25 Schouwburg at Club O. This evening promises to be a party you’ll be talking about for a long time!

“Fully in the artistic line of O., we bring a unique evening where the emotions of songs from all times and cultures come together with our own world-class Rotterdam orchestra alongside young talent.” – Guy Coolen, artistic director
