Discover concerts in Nieuwe Kerk

In addition to the concerts in Amare’s brand new halls, the 24/25 season also offers concerts in the age-old Nieuwe Kerk. 

There is much to enjoy and appreciate in this splendid ‘fifth auditorium’, just across the road from Amare. With its rich history and superb acoustic qualities, Nieuwe Kerk has inspired musicians, artists and visitors throughout the centuries. It offers an unparallelled platform for the many ensembles and festivals of The Hague. In 24/25, we are again teaming up with our partners to offer a wonderful programme here. We thereby continue our tradition in hosting top-notch musicians and ensembles, from both within and outside the country. Examples are the Zehetmair Quartet, alt violinist Lawrence Power, the Ragazze Quartet and Calefax. 

Programme themes 

This season we are introducing programme themes to create a better overview of what’s on offer in Nieuwe Kerk

De Donder Dagen
In autumn, we are organising three occasions (indeed on ‘donderdagen’, that is, Thursdays), where distinctive and remarkable programmes will raise the roof in various unexpected ways. Kicking off with a unique experience: Rileys In C by a large group of musicians, drawn from the many top companies that The Hague has to offer.
NK Next Generation
In collaboration with the Royal Conservatoire we shine a spotlight on exciting new talents from The Hague, as well as on contemporary makers. Come and enjoy The Counterpoints (innovators in baroque), Soundwave Collective and The Hague’s clarinet virtuoso Jelmer de Moed (with friends) with spectacular visuals.
Orgel Anders
This season wouldn’t be complete without an extensive and fascinating series of organ concerts. After a thorough restoration, the Nieuwe Kerk’s historic Duyschot/Witte organ sounds (and looks) better than ever! This thematic series, composed by the city’s organist Geerten van de Wetering, will demonstrate it to you!
