GERARD PETRUS FIERET at the Fotomuseum, The Hague

There were echoes of Cartier Bresson with the candid, sometimes seemingly random street scenes . . . some of the shadowy portraits and nude studies were almost like those of Man Ray . . . But these images are much more than mere photographs; they are testament to a man’s extraordinary life.

FESTIVAL JAZZ IN DE GRACHT, The Hague

17th, 18th & 19th August around the city centre canals. The Festival Jazz in de Gracht (literally Jazz in the Canal) is held annually in the picturesque canals of the city. This free event creates a unique atmosphere and is a way to truly enjoy this beautiful city and all the talent that is hidden within.

FINALE OF DELFT CHAMBER MUSIC FESTIVAL

The finale provided a worthy climax by presenting two superb octets – the lesser known Schubert Octet in F major and, another world première for the Festival, Sebastian Fagerlund’s Autumn Equinox . . . The Festival’s success can be attributed almost exclusively to Liza Ferschtman who not only brought and held the whole thing together but also played in the majority of concerts.

DE KARGADOOR, Utrecht

A multi-function performance space with an emphasis on comedy, including some gigs in English. The Kargadoor is a quirky cultural and social stage for a curious audience on the Oudegracht.
