Maistro Morricone – Carel Kraayenhof en Matangi Strijkkwartet

Famous film music performed by a masterful ensemble

Carel Kraayenhof and Matangi bring the magic of Ennio Morricone’s music to life in a unique combination of bandoneon and string quartet. Films such as Once Upon a Time in the West and The Untouchables are inextricably linked to Morricone’s iconic melodies.

Morricone described Carel as someone whose interpretation is perfect, intense, and rigorous, and who makes the instrument work in a non-traditional way, making it surprisingly relevant. Together, they will further explore the world of Morricone, performing not only his own compositions but also following the musical journey he influenced and the composers inspired by him. Thus, during this concert, the audience will have the opportunity to discover traces of Morricone in the music of Carel Kraayenhof, Osvaldo Golijov, and Philip Glass, among others.

Line-up: Carel Kraayenhof – bandoneon Maria-Paula Majoor – violin 1 Hannelore de Vuyst – violin 2 Karsten Kleijer – viola Arno van der Vuurst – cello
