Music in leisure time.
On 23 June 2013 we recorded a concert by Orkest Zuid in the ‘Blazen in de Beurs’ series at the Beurs van Berlage in Amsterdam. Orkest Zuid is an interregional Brabant wind orchestra founded in 2008 and conducted by Jos van de Braak. The orchestra plays symphonic wind music on a high artistic level using talented amateur musicians as well as professionals. Orkest Zuid is a project orchestra with an educational purpose and often presents surprisingly original projects in which various disciplines such as architecture and natural sciences are connected to music. This concert is themed ‘Walsen aan de Grachten’ (Waltzing on the Canals).
