Five ADE Arts & Culture Opening Concerts

Dutch artist Eefje de Visser will play the glass atrium at the Van Gogh Museum unplugged, treating visitors to a fifty-minute performance of her songs in their truest form. Nick Verstand & the Cello Octet Amsterdam take on DOOR OPEN SPACE, where they present 'COCON II'. This audiovisual live performance has been designed explicitly for ADE this year.

BIMHUIS presents a special collaboration between legendary free jazz singer Greetje Bijma and left-field artist Oceanic. The event will close with a genre-fusing concert by classically trained producer LUXE (live). 24classics will present ‘Philip Glass by Lavinia Meijer & Nikki Hock’ at the iconic Zuiderkerk, where Meijer’s hypnotic classical music meets Hock’s audiovisual works, and true to tradition, Melkweg welcomes Metropole Orkest, to collaborate with Miguel Atwood-Ferguson to play their tribute titled ‘50 Years of J Dilla’.
