Music festival for explorers and wanderers
September Me makes Amersfoort for the ninth time the center of classical music with Theatre Flint as festival heart. The artistic direction of the festival is in the hands of Ragazze Quartet and that leads, as in previous editions, to adventurous new collaborations with international and local musicians from multiple worlds. As a result, September Me is full of everything and several programs and compositions will be premiered!

Featured: Glass, my unfulfilled life
A documentary about -and a concert with- the only Glass Organ in the Netherlands.
Rogier Kappers, well-known documentary filmmaker and Golden Calf winner, decides at 52 to make his childhood dream come where: build a glass organ. In Glass, My Unfulfilled Life, he captures his comic quest for glasses, a bakfiets and street musician fame, while wondering if he is getting everything out of life.
Opening Concert The Breath of Strings
An enchanting journey along jazz, classical and world music. The opening concert of September Me 2025 revolves around the artist in focus: Renaud Garcia-Fons, master of the five-string double bass. In The Breath of Strings, sounds from around the world - from the Far East to Africa and from rock to flamenco buleríavan, fuse with strings that transcend cultures.
