Carillon listening concert | Jon Lehrer (USA)

International Carillon Concerts - Summer evenings full of sound and character
This summer, the Netherlands Carillon Center invites you to a special series of carillon concerts from the Tower Onze Lieve Vrouwetoren. The Onze Lieve Vrouwetoren, a showpiece among Dutch towers, was built in the 15th century. The tower contains - uniquely in the world - two playable carillons. On six Wednesday evenings - from 20:00 to 21:00 - top carillonneurs from home and abroad will perform a surprising program on Amersfoort's famous carillons.

Listening in the city courtyard of 'Beer&Grill De Vier Broers'.
Especially for these concerts, a quiet listening area has been set up in the private city garden of De Vier Broers. Although there is no view of the tower, here you can hear the bells crystal clear - without distraction from the busy terrace traffic. An ideal spot for those who really want to listen.

Enjoy a drink during the concert
Make your listening evening complete with a cup of coffee, a good glass of wine or a cold beer. Order easily on the spot and you will receive your first drink from Beiaard Centrum Nederland.

Limited number of seats available
There are approximately 15 seats available. Want to be assured of a spot? Come on time and experience the unique interplay of city sound and the art of bells.

Free entrance for lovers of sound, peace and culture
The concerts are free to attend and open to everyone. Whether you are a classical music lover, curious about the unique sound of the carillon, or just want to enjoy an atmospheric summer evening downtown - this series offers a rare listening experience.
