January 2026 — What an incredible way to start the year! In a sold-out Concertgebouw, energy and enthusiasm were bursting from every corner, interwoven with moments of reflection and deep emotion. What a joy to share the stage — or rather, the entire hall — with so much talent: the young composers Gregory Shaggy and Jojo Wave, all the young dancers, Christianne Stotijn, the puppets of Duda Paiva, and of course our own jongNBE, standing side by side with the NBE.
We truly enjoyed this vibrant start to the year. And we’re already looking ahead to all the beautiful programmes that are lined up — starting again at the end of this month.
Until then, would you like to watch Adem van de Stad, the NBE New Year’s Concert of 2026 (again)?
You can watch it (even without a subscription) on NPO Start.
