Step into a warm and musical story with Marieke de Bruijn, a violinist with over 25 years of stage and studio experience. She humorously recounts how, as a farmer's daughter, she found her way and ended up at the Concertgebouw.

Through personal stories, anecdotes from the classical and pop worlds, and a glimpse behind the scenes of the concert stage, you gain insight into what it truly means to be a musician: the joy, the tension, the cards you sometimes shuffle the wrong way, raising children, and above all: what music can give you. And Marieke shares more about the etiquette and customs in classical music, and is happy to knock down a few sacred cows in the process.

Come and have lunch in our restaurant Stoom beforehand to make your afternoon out complete! We recommend taking a seat in our restaurant at 12:00; the soup will be served at 12:30! You can book lunch when reserving a ticket for the concert. Lunch costs €27.50 and excludes drinks. (Please inform us of any allergies by phone at 0223 674 666)

Event
In the 2025/2026 theater season, all performances of 'Ik weet het eigenlijk niet' were completely sold out, including at Den Helder! Partly for that reason, and mainly because he is looking forward to it, Fred is back in the 2026/2027 season with his theater show 'Ik weet het eigenlijk niet'.
