The Transatlantic Concert takes you on a musical journey from the west coast of Africa, via Cape Verde, to the Caribbean and South America. In this concert, descendants now living in the Netherlands pay tribute to the enslaved people who were forced to make the crossing to the Dutch Caribbean islands, South America, and the Caribbean. The central theme of the evening is connection through music. The concert is performed by the Atlantic Crossing Ensemble, together with various vocalists, including Curaçao-born soloist Mara Letti, Cuban singer Evelyn Dumpuy, and Suriname-born Kenny B. The musical direction is in the hands of Venezuelan conductor Michael Simon, and the opening act will be performed by pianist Sherman Zimmerman. After the concert, the evening continues with performances by Amigos from South America and the Caribbean group Mini Cache Royale. During the afterparty, you can also enjoy a selection of culinary bites.

Community life is a crucial social and cultural driver in our society. Few things connect people as deeply as joining a club or association. Without a doubt, the association is one of the most effective tools against division in society. Both clubs and enthusiasts, as well as independent practitioners of amateur arts, can find a place at Muziekgebouw Eindhoven. With the project For the Love of Music, we are pleased to offer our venues to everyone who loves music: creators, artists, and musicians from Eindhoven and the surrounding region.
