The 40-minute live version of Music for Wiek for saxophone orchestra and percussion septet will be performed by the Macau Band Directors Association Saxophone Ensemble, conducted by Hugo Loi.
The shows are on February 7 & 8 at the Black Box Theatre II, Macau Cultural Centre in Macau (China).

The yearly concert of the ensemble, the Phone Show Carnival, is themed Echo of Simplicity.

The program includes works such as U-Sax, Here to There, Narayana's Cows, On the Nature of Daylight, Groove Machine, and Music for Wiek, showcasing works by composers such as Theodor Burkali, Max Richter, Marc Mellits and yours truly. 

I will travel with a grant from the Performing Arts Fund NL to Macao to attend both shows. On February 

9 I'll present a lecture Back to the Groove - Minimal Music and Beyond, a short history of the background and highlights of Minimal Music up to today.

Pianist and composer Douwe Eisenga creates sparkling music for sparkling minds, a hypnotizing mix of rhythm, haunting melodies, and compelling lyricism. Honest, down to earth peoples-music. Often subdued and sober with a generous force: the underlying melodies carve themselves into the soul of the listener. 
In 2017 he composed the moving For Mattia. Since its release, the composition has consistently ranked high in the Dutch Classical Top 400.
