Amsterdam has been harbouring outside influences for 750 years. The more diverse the mix, the stronger the city’s character. Amsterdam is a city of many voices, a polyphony that is echoed in its music. Tania Kross sings folk songs from several cultures, brought together and arranged by Luciano Berio. The rich culture of the Antilles resounds in arias from the opera Katibu di shon (Slave and Master), the first opera in Papiamentu. In Theo Verbey’s Notturno, the whole world resonates in an Amsterdam appartment. 

Greek-born composer Calliope Tsoupaki has been living and working in Amsterdam, and was Composer Laureate of the Netherlands from 2018 to 2021. For the Concertgebouw Orchestra she wrote a newly commissioned work.
