November Music Highlights!!!! #8.
As the November Music Festival in 2020 was completely cancelled and we had no recordings for the 2021 season, we decided to show highlights from the more than 350 hours of material we recorded in cooperation with the VPRO. Today’s programme includes recordings from the 20011 edition, including concerts by the New Ensemble with a portrait of Edgard Varese and the Clazz Ensemble with a project about Louis Andriessen.
