FREEDOM IN MUSIC – May 5, 2010 – Liberation Festivals

From April 28th on, 16 students from the conservatories of Amsterdam and Rotterdam, and 7 students from American conservatories will form four bands and compose music with the Four Freedoms as the theme. The resulting compositions will be performed at the Liberation Festivals in Den Bosch, Zwolle, Rotterdam, Wageningen and Vlissingen on May 5, 2010. These festivals commemorate the liberation of the Netherlands from the Nazi occupation in World War II.
