Maarten Koningsberger & Friends

Maarten Koningsberger

Maarten Koningsberger's international song career is characterized by a wide variety of styles; his farewell recital will also span four centuries of song art. He has sung dozens of times in the Concertgebouw, but his recitals have taken him all over the world, from the Carnegie Hall in New York to the Baxter Concert Hall in Cape Town. He has also recorded about thirty CDs, most of which are songs, with works by Dowland, Purcell, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, Mahler and Ravel, among others.
