Sound & Silence
Chris Hinze & Ton Akkermans

On Saturday, May 18, 2024 from 8:30 PM to 9:45 PM is the next “Sound & Silence” Lig Concert (Lay down concert) by Chris Hinze & Ton Akkermans at the attractive Sufi temple in the dunes of Katwijk aan Zee.

Sufi Temple, Zuidduinseweg 7, 2225 JS Katwijk aan Zee, Netherlands

ABOUT THIS EVENT:
Chris Hinze ended his last major tour in November 2023, with a frenzied concert in Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw. However, there is no question of quitting music. He will continue giving intimate, soothing music tours together with sound phenomenon Ton Akkermans in 2024. The concerts are a combination of flute improvisations, inspired by the calming meditative sounds of singing bowls, gongs, and bells. Concerts that you can enjoy sitting or lying down.

CONTENT:
Ton Akkermans opens with a short introduction about the intention of the world of sound and the magic of ancient Tibetan singing bowls. The flute and singing bowls are the ideal combination to connect silence with sound. Concert duration is approx. 1 ¼ hours. Allready last year, both played a sold-out ”Lay down Concert” concert at the Sufi temple in Katwijk.

Ton Akkermans: singing bowls, gongs and bells specialist. Akkermans plays, among other things, the large plate gong, a mix of tam-tam and gong/sound tubes, the longest of which is almost 2 meters long, bells, cymbals, triangles and phosphor bronzes and sound bars. All these instruments are handmade, forged by himself. He gives lectures and workshops at home and abroad.

If possible bring your own mat, pillow, and blanket. The temple has chairs and woollen blankets.
