Description
The Sunday Concert series at the "Concertgebouw" presents excellent Dutch ensembles and performers, at a time ideally suited to locals and visitors alike: Sunday mornings at 11:00.
The Concertgebouw, with its incomparable acoustics, exciting programming and attractive neo-classical architecture, has long stood at the centre of Amsterdam's vibrant musical life. The acoustics in particular have established the hall as a favourite of acclaimed conductors, orchestras and soloists over the years. Bernard Haitink, Long time principal conductor and conductor laureate of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, is said to have once described it as the best instrument in the orchestra that it houses.
A pleasure for musicians, the hall's unique qualities have not gone lost on audiences either. With over 850,000 visitors at ca. 800 events a year, it is the second most-visited concert hall in the world.
If you like, couple your concert with a brunch at the Concertgebouw's "Pleinfoyer". After the concert it is just a short trip to some of Amsterdam's finest museums.
What could be a finer way to spend a Sunday in Amsterdam?
