About this concert

Butterflies in the stomach, clammy hands and groundbreaking performances: the tension rises during the denouement of the International Van Wassenaer Competition. Who will walk off with the winnings? Four young early music ensembles compete for the prize pool: various sums of money, masterclass vouchers and a concert tour in the Early Music Season.
