In the Occident, the muses bring artists inspiration. In the Arab world, djinns
make your deepest wishes come true. Close to the inner wonder of the dream: this
is where Belgian lutenist Sofie Vanden Eynde and Iraqi oud player Saad Mahmood
Jawad meet. They blend their favourite compositions from Downland to Fairuz,
improvising on baroque bass lines and oriental maqamat. Far outside their
everyday comfort zone, Sofie and Saad set out to discover the age-old kinship
between their instruments.

Description
Julia Tavit, Damiën Heemskerk, Sterre Hond
Welcome to our upcoming concert "6 hands | 1 piano" where we will be performing a unique program consisting of pieces for solo, four-handed and six-handed piano.
In the solo pieces each pianist will showcase their virtuosity and individual expression. We will perform pieces ranging from classical to contemporary styles, even including some original pieces. Here we can truly showcase our individual backgrounds as pianists.
The four handed and six-handed pieces is where those backgrounds will be brought together to create a celebration of teamwork, musicianship and creative synergy. With the four-handed pieces we are able to tell our stories together, ranging from folkdances to beautiful fairytales. The piano becomes very intimate when two pianists have a dialogue on the instrument.
However, the six-handed pieces are what make this concert a must-see for everyone. Three pianist playing together behind the same instrument is something you don't get to see often. Together we will even premiere a new piece, written by us for six-handed piano. This form of performance will showcase our individual talents while working seamlessly together to produce a unique sound that will captivate your senses.
The concert event promises to be an unforgettable experience, with each performance showcasing our different styles and skills. Don't miss this opportunity to witness the magic of piano music at its best. Join us for an evening of beautiful melodies and impeccable performances.
