JANUARY 2025: a strange 'debut' at the canaries ;)
Freshly 68 years old, I have finally sung something I hadn't the chance to sing when I was a boy and I have always wanted to sing: the cantus firmus (soprano in ripieno part) of JS Bach's Matthew Passion (due to a lack of a local childrens choir at the Canaries). One could say I made a retrograde in my 'career'. Well, it was just marvellous. I sang together with Elisabeth Breuer, Merel van Geest and Carolina Andrade.
Merel and I are as of now for hire as a MP childrenschoir substitute. Just wait booking us until our marine costumes are ready. ;)

What does it take to be a professional early music ensemble singer?
We had a marvellous week in which we had for once, finally, a bit of time to go into details.
On the musicstands we had music by G.F. Händel: Watermusic and Funeral Anthem for Queen Caroline
