ART Ensemble | Bach & Breakfast

The ART ensemble is a contrasting, challenging and inspiring trio consisting of Laura Hölzenspies (piano), Karin Jochems (flute) and Margreet Niks (flute). On Sunday, Oct. 5, the ensemble will play a varied program with works by Beethoven, Saint-Saëns and Debussy, among others.

Margreet studied with Abbie de Quant in Utrecht and Pierre-Yves Artaud in Paris. She obtained her diploma as Performing Musician with distinction. She then studied with Jacques Zoon in Boston and Berlin. As a freelancer Margreet plays with almost all major Dutch orchestras and with contemporary ensembles such as Nieuw Ensemble and Insomnio. After the strange year 2020, to her own surprise and pleasure, she combines the music life with two working days in healthcare.

Karin studied at the Utrecht Conservatory with Abbie de Quant. In addition to the ART Ensemble, Karin works regularly with organists Jamie de Goei and Ko Zwanenburg. With guitarist/composer Adriaan Dropsie she forms duo Entre Dos. Karin is a flute teacher in Amersfoort and Scherpenzeel and conducts with the PreWindz ensemble of the Koninklijke Amersfoortse Muziekvereniging.

Laura studied piano with Alwin Bär and Kyoko Hashimoto and harpsichord with Siebe Henstra at the Utrecht Conservatory. She works extensively with singers and wind players, including in the ensembles Baroque Bicolore, Animosa Trio and ART Ensemble. The program includes works from early baroque to contemporary music. In addition, Laura regularly works as a rehearsal pianist for choirs. Laura combines her performing music practice with a policy position at Wageningen University.
