In 2023, Matangi will play works by Simeon ten Holt in two different programs. It is 100 years ago that the Bergen composer (deceased in 2012) was born. In the context of this centenary, the work of Simeon ten Holt is central in various Dutch concert halls.

It's a wrap, the (Un)heard Music Festival 2023! Two days full of music, dance and film inthe nice ambiance of Korzo in The Hague. John Psathas from New Zealand was composer-in-residence during the festival. Due to his Greek background, his music is an interesting fusion of European traditions, folk music from both continents and influences from jazz and pop music.

On March 24 & 25 there are two extra performances of Stop de Tijd. Come to Theater Bellevue in Amsterdam.

Hij speelde eerder met het Nederlands Blazers Ensemble en componeerde de muziek voor de Olympische Spelen van Athene. Componist John Psathas is dit weekend in Nederland de speciale gast tijdens het (Un)heard Music Festival van Matangi.

Surrounded by many close quartet friends, family, acquaintances and the godfather of Matangi: Stefan Metz and his wife Isabelle Bensa, we thoroughly enjoyed the last few live sounding notes with Daniel in Matangi.

After the resounding success of the Canto Ostinato, Matangi ventures into another masterpiece by Simeon ten Holt in the Ten Holt year. The string septet Palimpsest knows how to touch, move and bewilder the soul. Immerse yourself in the magical world of Ten Holt.
