This year's Holland Festival will be taking place June 4-28. The Holland Festival has been the trend-setting performance arts festival in the Netherlands since 1947, annually presenting exceptional work at the international level. This 62nd edition has 'Serenity & Anxiety' as its central theme. There will be special attention for French-American composer and 'Father of Electronic Music' Edgard Varèse (1883-1965). His complete works will be performed, which sounds spectacular. (For those of you who never heard any of his music, you can listen some of it here). The new website for this years edition of the festival has gone online past Tuesday and ticket sales have started. Just so you know, the Antony and the Johnsons concert, together with the Dutch Metropole Orchestra, June 22 at Carré, has already sold out.
