‘Belonging’ for voice and orchestra performed in the Netherlands

‘Belonging’ for voice and orchestra (2020) was performed again last month at the Andriessen Festival in Arnhem the Netherlands featuring the wonderful Sterre Konijn (voice) and the Orchestra of the 21st Century conducted by Manoj Kamps. The work sets a short extract from a poem by the Irish poet Cherry Smyth. This festival was another remarkable achievement by the organisers and performers and was broadcast online and on Dutch national radio. You can watch the premiere of the work which happened just before the pandemic here or in the window on this page.
