Winterreise 2  
Yuri Honing collaborates with Huub van der Lubbe!

The second edition of Yuri Honing’s annual event at Paradiso will once again take place on December 29. This year the project with singer/songwriter Huub van der Lubbe is one of the most surprising collaborations. Huub and Yuri collected various poems from Gerrit Komrij, Jean Pierre Rawie and Paul Van Ostaijen, just to name a few, which will be performed together with Nico Brandsen on Hammond organ and Louis Debij on drums. The sound of blues spirituals will accompany Van Der Lubbe’s preaching.

Also, the new project with dance producer FLORiS will be presented. Together with ao Janne Schra and Leine, Yuri will play a set that is drenched in electronics and beats based largely upon loops and new compositions distilled from Honing’s complete discography.

The Yuri Honing Trio with a very special guest will open the festival. The evening will again be hosted by Peter Heerschop.
