Harmony is not a festival, and it brings neither concerts nor shows. It is an innovative format built around an intensification of listening, supported by an immersive, 360-degree visual experience. Across ten music ceremonies, where the boundaries between classical, ambient and electronic music dissolve, the programme brings together artists who work with precision and subtlety in sound and space. For lovers of music and culture, Amsterdam gains an inspiring new dimension.

The call to action is: Listen.

At the heart of Harmony is introspective listening: listening with an inward focus. Each ceremony is a musical journey of around three hours, usually with a pause in between. Each artist invites a companion artist, so every ceremony consists of two performances that are connected musically and visually, forming a single flow. Each ceremony comes into being in the moment, as an interplay between musicians, space and listeners. New combinations of instruments and playing techniques make the experience experimental and well suited to deepening the act of listening. The piano often takes a central role, supported by other acoustic or electronic instruments, or sometimes the voice. Each ceremony has its own visual design, shaped by musical elements such as rhythm, texture and dynamics. No two ceremonies are the same. Music, light and image merge into one, creating a 360-degree Gesamtkunstwerk that fully envelops the audience.
