Dutch Classical Talent

The tragic love story of Orpheus and Eurydice has inspired countless artists. Joost Willemze now tells this story on the harp in a theatrical concert.

His unparalleled talent is reflected in the first prizes he won at international competitions. Willemze studied classical languages ​​in addition to harp at the conservatory. In this performance his love for music and his love for Greek mythology come together. The jury also makes a link to antiquity: 'He plays the harp like a Greek god. With his serene appearance and stylized program he shows us how beautiful simplicity can be.'

'Beautiful, great sound and clear virtuosity.'
