about
¡We’re proud to present With Fire and Passion!
From the sparkling streets of Madrid to the passionate rhythms of Buenos Aires, this program brings together music that burns with intensity and emotion. With our brilliant soprano Laetitia Gerards, we invite you to experience love, longing, and joy in melodies that speak directly to the heart.
¿Why does passion in music feel so universal? From Ravel’s French elegance shaped by Spain, to Falla’s fiery folklore, to Piazzolla’s irresistible tango, we discover how music crosses borders to ignite imagination.
Along the way, you’ll hear intimate songs, dramatic interludes, and dazzling dances, performed by top musicians from Amsterdam. To crown the evening, Piazzolla’s unforgettable Yo soy María bursts forth in a blaze of rhythm and fire.
With Fire and Passion is more than a concert: it’s a chance to feel, to dream, and to celebrate music’s power to set the soul alight.
