Preparing a new year Full of Music
From 19 to 27 August 2023, a stream of mediterranean music rises from the Twente country: a program with almost 30 concerts will be performed, performed by more than 40 musicians. The heart of the festival is the centuries-old Stiftskerk. Many of the other concerts take place in special locations, indoors or outdoors. Nature is central, the music will do the rest.
