Stimulating the senses, spoiling the mind.
Rehearsing with Het Stedelijk orkest. A song that I wrote commissioned by @cultuurhuiswherelant with music from @thomasvgeerts . Fun and excitement! ❤️🎶🌸 Director is Bert Steinmann.
De mooiste momenten haal je uit het scheppen en het leren door met passie te creëren. Blij en met een lach zonnig door de dag, kleuren verschijnen je straalt!
On the Roof: on top of a building in Amsterdam Neco took as om a trip to Mozambique. We heated the rithme of the land the sounds of the wind and the birds, the stories of his grandparents and his dad who was absent. We clapped and sang together. That was really a wonderful experience. Thanks Neco!
The Bottlepose of Leon van Kuijk
Expressing you care about (the rising) of the water and environment. By doing the bottle pose you pose as if you fill a bottle with water and take it out of the sea or ocean. Based on the performance of the Dutch absurdist artist Wim T. Schippers.
Happy birthday Elvis.
From the project L.Vis. For an exhibition which I joined as lousy impersonator. 😁 With real original blue sued shoes that is.

Gratis Halloween concert.
Voor en door kinderen. Maar iedereen is welkom. Met kinderorkest van Zuiderwoude en Waterlandse Harmonie en Thomas Geerts. Kom lekker verkleed. Ik zing een vies Halloweenlied en lees een Surinaams griezelverhaal voor. Tot grrrr aaarch…
Waterlandse Harmonie
Renate Jorg en nieuw kunstenaarslid Henk Fakkeldij hebben met het oog op het voorjaar de zomer en de vakantie allemaal muziek gekozen waarin speciale plekken of steden een rol spelen. Ze hoppen van Berlijn naar Bilbao en van Amsterdam naar Almere.
Zij hebben het programma samengesteld uit bestaande nummers en een paar eigen songs. Sommige zijn bekend, andere obscuur. Renate speelt piano en zingt en Henk zingt. Met onder andere Bernstein, Porter, Weil en Piazzola.
What a wonderful world oh yeah!
Dit optreden is onderdeel van de randprogrammering van de tentoonstelling UPDATE – werk van nieuwe leden. Kunstenaars die in 2017 lid zijn geworden van Arti presenteren zich
Where did the name come from?
Born from the chemical cocktail of Lithium and Beryllium as well as a touch of Liberty, they ended up with…Liberium! Well, let’s leave aside the chemical explanations and continue our journey:
Liberium consists of four artists – aka the “Liberii”- who translate their life experiences into a performance.
They are open to different means of expression: music, visuals arts, art of speech and who knows, maybe you can inspire them with new ideas…!
Who are they?
Liberium is formed by four passionate artists: Thomas Geerts (trumpet), Anouchka Scaillet (violin), Jarno va Es (piano) and last but not least, Henk Fakkeldij (anchor man and live graphics/drawings)
What do they do?
The Liberii have just launched their show “American Beauty” based on an idea from Thomas Geerts. They perform works composed by Gershwin, Ewazen, Geerts and van Es.
“American Beauty” casts a light on some great American composers, their life and their time. Henk Fakkeldij creates visual works as a reflection on the music, these creations are projected live during the show: this allows the audience to fully experience the process.
Through little interviews the audience really gets an insight on the process of creation and the personal stories of the musicians: what they want to express and the feelings they want to share with the audience making Liberium a very dynamic group.
Geerts and van Es are not only performing artists but also compose music based on their own experiences. Most of the music is based on love stories…not surprising is it?
