The background

Joke Hermsen about emptiness

Churches are gradually emptying, yet everyone still needs moments of contemplation. Reflect with Bach is the place to be. A Saturday morning at TivoliVredenburg, where spoken word and music meet for a moment of reflection, inspiration and peace.

“

A moment of reflection, inspiration and peace“

Bach's music provides the universal themes, while different speakers and thinkers reflect on them from their own perspectives. The surprising and moving reflections of poet Maud Vanhauwaert, presenter Lex Bohlmeijer and the Netherlands Bach Society are constant features. Today's theme: emptiness. With: philosopher Joke Hermsen

This concert is part of the series Reflect with Bach.
