Family & fighters

This performance was called LOOM STORYTELLING COLLECTIVE, but has been changed to a collaboration between Loom-member Marion Laville and Nora Fischer.

Especially for her member concert, Nora Fischer creates an interwoven story together with her fellow storyteller Marion Laville, enriched with beautiful Argentinian songs by Splendor musician Jonatan Alvarado.

Many of us know the fierce Greek fighter Antigone, but her timid sister Ismene is less of a celebrity. Marion explores the personal relationship with her own brother through the lens of this legendary Greek story. Meanwhile, Nora explores the relationship with resistance fighters of the past to whom she indirectly owes her life; highlighting both her admiration for their courage, and the question whether she herself can live up to that courage.

An afternoon about the struggle of knowing how best to show up in today’s complex world.

This performance will be in English.

Member concert
Splendor can only be the independent and free hub that it is, thanks to the members who support us. We pay them back with our specialty: music. Every year, all Splendor musicians play one concert that's free for this crucial group to whom Splendor owes its everyday existence. Combined with many other events, this means that our members have free entrance to over 50 concerts a year for €9,99 p/m (and €4,99 p/m for minima and students!) – and receive a discount for all other concerts. Pretty good deal, right?

The members enable Splendor to remain independent, which is the only way to secure real freedom in programming, experimentation, risk-taking and the promotion of young, upcoming artists. If you can think of another place without a central programming, where last-minute concerts can be planned any moment, where there is no backstage and artists and audience are constantly mingling and hanging out at the bar, where mysterious creative outbursts can be presented that are often labeled 'too risky' elsewhere, and that still guarantees high quality by unleashing the best of The Netherlands' music scene in this creative playground – you get a free membership!
