Akim Moiseenkov creates music, music theatre and homemade instruments. The fact that this happens to be just as much fun for children as it is for adults is a coincidence. It’s a double coincidence!
It’s not specifically for children. It’s simply for everyone. But wait, what is Akim actually going to perform? He doesn’t know exactly yet. I’ll ask him.
Akim?
Yes?
What are you going to perform?
I don’t know exactly, but I’m thinking I’ll definitely sing something, play a homemade instrument, and do something with light and moving animation.
Are you sure?
No, I’m not sure.
Are you sure it’s going to be fun?
I’m almost certain.
And are you going to use snap pops?
I wasn’t planning to, but now that you mention it, I definitely will!
Okay. And how long will it last?
I don’t know that either, but if it gets too long, we’ll take a break.
I’m not much wiser.
That’s okay, as long as you know I have enough things to make it a fun afternoon. I just have to choose.
Okay! And once you’ve made your choice, will you add it to the programme?
Nope. I'm keeping it a surprise.
Member concert
Splendor can only be the independent and free hub that it is, thanks to the members who support us. We pay them back with our specialty: music. Every year, all Splendor musicians play one concert that's free for this crucial group to whom Splendor owes its everyday existence. Combined with many other events, this means that our members have free entrance to over 50 concerts a year for €9,99 p/m (and €4,99 p/m for minima and students!) – and receive a discount for all other concerts. Pretty good deal, right?
The members enable Splendor to remain independent, which is the only way to secure real freedom in programming, experimentation, risk-taking and the promotion of young, upcoming artists. If you can think of another place without a central programming, where last-minute concerts can be planned any moment, where there is no backstage and artists and audience are constantly mingling and hanging out at the bar, where mysterious creative outbursts can be presented that are often labeled 'too risky' elsewhere, and that still guarantees high quality by unleashing the best of The Netherlands' music scene in this creative playground – you get a free membership!
