The Royal Netherlands Marine Band, together with Carel Kraayenhof (bandoneon), presents a musical tribute to a special and moving moment in recent Dutch history. On February 2, 2002, Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands and Máxima Zorreguieta exchanged vows, a day that many still remember vividly. Central to this program is that one unforgettable moment: the emotional performance of Adiós Nonino, during which the world witnessed the famous “royal tear.” Together with Carel Kraayenhof, the Marine Band returns to this intense memory and brings this moment back to life.
