King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima visit the annual King’s Day concert on 6 April in the Conservatory in Maastricht.

The concert is organized for invited public that is involved in the organization of King’s Day in the city.

Line up
Composer Ludwig van Beethoven is the theme of the concert. It was 250 years ago that he was born. In addition to students from Maastricht and former students of the conservatory from that city, the Dudok Quartet, pianists Olga Pastjenko and Enrico Pace, violinist Liza Ferschtman and a wind octet led by Eric Hoeprich and Teunis van der Zwart also perform. Cellist Ella van Poucke and pianist Nicolas van Poucke perform with their brother, dancer Timothy. The concert is presented by musicologist Floris Kortie.

Beatrix idea
The concert, at the initiative of former Queen Beatrix and Prince Claus, traditionally takes place prior to King’s Day. Since 2014, the concert has been organized in the municipality where King’s Day is held.

The King’s Day concert will be broadcast on NPO2 on 27 April at 8:30 PM.
