We join forces with young musicians, student composers, experienced composers/arrangers and the living legend of Dutch classical music, Theo Loevendie.
Come and experience this Midsummer8 concert with us, where Roctet members will talk to the relevant composers. You will get a unique insight into the creative process of composing and performing.
Before the pieces are played, one member of Roctet always talks to the composer in question. In this way we share experiences and insights gained during this process.
