In addition, we bring an exclusive version of Vivaldi’s Concerto for four violins, performed by four exceptional soloists, all winners of the Oskar Back Competition: Tosca Opdam, Rosanne Philippens, Enzo Kok and a fourth soloist who will soon be announced. An evening in which virtuosity, interplay and passion come together. This is an event that you don't want to miss!

This concert is part of ' The String Orchestra festival' in Amersfoort, an initiative of Esta 2025, powered by Havikconcerten. From 28 May to 31 May, eight concerts bring the power and versatility of string instruments to life at special locations. With performances in the Sint Aegten Chapel, the Sint Joriskerk, the St. Franciscus Xaveriuskerk and Flint, the city is immersed in beautiful strings for four days.
