Website now also available in English

The Sweelinck Music Education Netherlands website is now also available in English. This makes it more accessible to non-native speakers. It is clear that they too are very welcome to attend music lessons given by teachers who are part of the platform for professional music teachers.

In addition, a number of pages have been improved and updated. This applies in particular to the categories Conservatory, Coaching Ensembles, and Accompaniment. These pages now provide clearer information about what the lessons have to offer.

At the same time, technical improvements have been made. This will improve security, but above all, findability. Music lovers, aspiring musicians on their way to the conservatory, and professionals alike will now be able to find Sweelinck Muziekopleiding Nederland more easily. And all this has been achieved by Fiks in Beuningen.

Gelre Chamber Music Competition

Since 2021, the Netherlands has had a new competition. It is open to any duo, trio or other ensemble that plays classical music, always without a conductor. Soloists are excluded. It is for musicians aged 20 to 27. JONG Gelre is specifically for young people aged 12 to 19. The Performance Day is especially for them. The ensembles can choose: to play alone, or to play and then receive feedback from professionals from the international chamber music world, or to play, receive feedback from the jury and compete for prizes. The prizes are masterclasses and/or concerts. The Performance Day will take place on 14 September 2024 in the Auditorium of Akoesticum in Ede. The final of the Gelre Chamber Music Competition will take place on 22 September 2024 in Concertgebouw De Vereeniging in Nijmegen.
