Schöne Wiege meiner Leiden

Jan Willem Baljet and Antonii Baryshevskyi bring an afternoon with pure romantic music by two of the greatest German lieder composers.

Robert Schumann and Hugo Wolf had a lot in common: both were hard to deal with, both were music critics with a sharp pen (and thus with a lot of enemies!), both died in an institution for the mentally ill. Despite their unstable state of mind their discomfort with life in general, they were leading representatives of German Romantic Song and together they composed more then 500 vocal works.

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 about 80 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!
