Music for Breakfast No. 2
Breakfast concert on Sunday morning
A feeling of soothing warmth on a wintry Sunday morning: that's what this episode of Music for Breakfast offers in abundance. Ron Tijhuis (cor anglais) and Carla Schrijner (cello) put together a programme with the glowing timbre of their instruments as a common thread. Four string players from the orchestra join them to treat the listener to five little-heard but oh-so-delightful musical miniatures – and make every winter depression vanish into thin air.
Music for Breakfast
Begin the day in an unhurried manner, enjoy a delicious breakfast and lovely music. An hour of pure gold for you and for each other on Sunday morning. Treat yourself to a musical breakfast put together by musicians of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra. After you have enjoyed a delicious Sunday morning breakfast, they will lull you with calming Sunday morning music, but will also shake you awake with espresso shots of new music. Music for Breakfast – it promises to be an hour of pure magic!
