Festival Dag in de Branding | Light Mass (Thomas van Dun)

The young composer Thomas van Dun is not one to limit himself to a single genre: he covers the entire spectrum from the orchestral to electronic dance music. During his residency at Festival Dag in de Branding, he is working on a composition with which he aims to create a trance experience.

Klang performs this composition with the adventurous organist Geerten van de Wetering. Music, light and projections will immerse the audience in a total experience. Visual artist Frouke ten Velden provides the light animations on the ceiling during this concert, which the audience will watch lying down.

During Festival Dag in de Branding in The Hague, the theatres, the Residentie Orkest and various ensembles will introduce you to the latest music. Three times a year they organize a festival full of discoveries at different locations in The Hague. Today’s makers are central. Meet the composers and chat with the musicians. What fascinates them and how is that reflected in their work?
