UPDATE: Due to a miscommunication between De Nieuwe Kerk and Amare, the concert will not take place in De Nieuwe Kerk, but in the Paleiskerk, Paleisstraat 8, 2514 JA The Hague, and it will start at 20:30!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not only will The New European Ensemble celebrate the 150th anniversary of composer Arnold Sch\u00f6nberg\u2019s birth in 2025 but also the 15th anniversary of the ensemble itself. With an exciting and forward-thinking program, the ensemble pays tribute to the composer who has permanently changed the course of music history.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Under the direction of conductor Henk Guittart, the New European Ensemble will present a fresh new version of Sch\u00f6nberg\u2019s Violin Concerto, a work that has not been performed in the Netherlands since 1994. This groundbreaking piece returns, with Maria Milstein as the soloist. She is the first Dutch violinist since Jaring Walta in 1981 to take on the challenge of this virtuosic and intense work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, a brand new piece by Dutch composer Martijn Padding will have its world premiere: Ma Vie en Couleurs. This work is inspired by Sch\u00f6nberg\u2019s colorful expressionist paintings and forms a contemporary dialogue with his musical legacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The concert will conclude with the Serenade Op. 24, a work that holds a special place in the ensemble\u2019s history: in 2009, it was the very first piece performed by the New European Ensemble at its inception.

A unique opportunity to rediscover Sch\u00f6nberg\u2019s innovative power and experience contemporary music in all its glory!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn this program, the authenticity of the New European Ensemble is fully showcased. After 31 years, we are bringing Sch\u00f6nberg\u2019s Violin Concerto back to the Netherlands, a work that has been unjustly absent for so long. Additionally, we return to our roots with the Serenade Op. 24, the first piece we ever played as an ensemble. And with Martijn Padding\u2019s new composition, we add a contemporary voice to this tribute to Sch\u00f6nberg. This concert embodies what NEuE stands for: tradition and innovation in one breath.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
