Reinaert de V. (7+)
Holland Opera in co-production with Duda Paiva Company & New European Ensemble

Queen Nobel holds Court Day. All the animals complain about the evil tricks of Reinaert de Vos. Bruun de Beer and Tibeert de Kater have to go get Reinaert, but he always outsmarts them. Only when his daughter Rosseline insists does Reinaert appear at the court of appeal.

Reinaert is convicted… He seems to convince Queen Nobel of his innocence with a sublime story. But Reinaert underestimated one person: his daughter.

The age-old story is adapted especially for this performance by two-time Golden Griffel winner Simon van der Geest.
Oene van Geel (winner VPRO/Boy Edgar Prize 2013) creates a versatile musical composition, in which each player has their own musical idiom.

The satirical animal story is translated into a climate lawsuit in which the ‘rights’ are seduced into corruption, in which the youth rises up against the old guard.
A multimedia family performance with the puppeteers and dancers of Duda Paiva Company, musicians of the New European Ensemble and singers of Holland Opera.

Reinaert de V. is fun for everyone aged 7 and over.

Humanity and Nature
New work by Kate Moore!

The New European Ensemble will return again, this time with Prof. Dr. Detlef van Vuuren to take a good look at our ecological footprint. Humanity literally ‘consumes’ the earth and our impact can be seen in what is left behind. Adams’ work explores loneliness in the Mexican desert and Kate Moore investigates and voices the rise in sea levels.

Humanity and Nature
Two composers with a shared fascination for ecology take center stage tonight.

This is not a casual interest: in the Anthropocene, humans have become a geological force that threatens the Earth’s ecosystem. Two works by Kate Moore can be heard: the poignant Days and Nature from 2019 and a brand new work. In there is no one, not even the wind by John Luther Adams, the music itself has become a landscape. Climate professor Detlef van Vuuren outlines the scientific context in a lecture. The New European Ensemble sounds the alarm in this program in a brilliant way.

Kate Moore uses a music machine by The Hague artist Peter van Loon in Days and Nature to underline that an ecosystem is also a precisely tuned ‘machine’. She gives voice to the growth of a tree, from a fragile trunk to a forest giant with a wide spreading canopy. there is no one, not even the wind… (2017) by John Luther Adams is a meditation on the emptiness and loneliness of the desert, but it is not difficult to listen to the intensely melancholic music as an elegy for nature.
