Proximity, with David Chalmin (live) & Bryce Dessner

With Proximity, we present a unique project where music, space, and technology come together. Here, we compose not only in terms of time but also for a spatial sculpture specifically designed for De Toonzaal and the Willem Twee studios. We are thrilled to collaborate with David Chalmin FR (Dream House Quartet) who will be performing live on guitar and electronics. During the preparations new musical material is created by David together with Bryce Dessner USA (The National) especially for Proximity—featuring guitar loops, drones, field recordings, and electronic synths. This will be premiered on Dec the 5th in De Toonzaal.

    Signal vom Dachstein – exhibition

    ‘Signal vom Dachstein’ is a community art project in the Dachstein region running over several years, in which many artistic threads are woven together. The project was launched at the summer solstice in 2021 with our landscape opera 'Signal am Dachstein'. This is the finale: a multichannel video & music installation at museum Schloss Trautenfels.

    Opening Stadsforum

    From the rooftops of Tilburg, we shared our city opera with the residents. When we’re not traveling or touring, this is where we create, explore, and experiment — a place that fuels our creativity and research. With the combination of our opera and directly after ‘Tilburg Sings,’ we wanted to build a bridge between these vocal cultures!

    Solar

    In this interactive installation, solar panels transform into a harmonious ensemble, powered by self-generated energy. It combines sustainability and art. The composition by Strijbos & Van Rijswijk resonates where choral voices and strings converge. Wander among the panels, take a seat, and admire the individual singing voices.
