Opera, Monteverdi & Bach fan with a HIP habit. Lurks around theatres and museums. Can, but doesn’t, read (enough). Also: coffee. ”Und in dem Wie, da liegt der ganze Unterschied”, i.e. #Antifascist

VVD wil nog steeds niet met GL/PvdA samenwerken. Heel principieel… na zelf jarenlang aan de wieg te hebben gestaan van de huidige problemen, een kabinet opportunistisch te laten vallen, extreemrechts aan de macht te helpen en dan 1,5 jaar niks maar dan ook niks voor elkaar te krijgen. Godgeklaagd.

Eerdmans: “Uitsluiting [PVV] vind ik cru.” Cru? Voor de milde PVV? 🙄

So true. Though the Caravaggios are amazing, of course.

Ik dacht dat m’n concert om 20.00 begon. Nog even op m’n kaartje gekeken (zie pic): 19.15. Dus toch maar snel naar de zaal. Is de deur nog dicht.
Zegt de jongedame die er staat met een ondertoon van ongeloof: “Dat is natuurlijk de tijd dat de deur opengaat, meneer.” 🤷‍♂️ Biertje!

Note to self: always check your ticket before a concert. (Tonight’s concert is in TivoliVredenburg, but in the much smaller Hertz auditorium instead of on the main stage. Kinda nice. Means I’ll be that much closer to the action.) #LiveMusic

I’m off to Utrecht’s wonderful #TivoliVredenburg concert hall tonight, where #TheNetherlandsBachSociety will perform their annual All Souls programme, led by #LionelMeunier no less. Looks like an ace programme. Can’t wait!

Hadn’t listened to this album for a while. It’s really exquisite. And fun! #Baroque #listening

So looking forward to diving into this recording. #MonteverdiEtAl

New from me: Emmanuel Macron delivered remarks in Germany recently that I think could serve as a template for an outside-the-box, ambitious political figure. But timing and breaking with prevailing orthodoxy would be critical. www.offmessage.net/p/defiant-re...

The Defiant Resistance Speech An American Should Have Given

There's power waiting to be claimed by an ambitious political figure who makes this his or her cause.

How Dutch to be able to vote in the general elections at a windmill, in the middle of Amsterdam. #MolenDeOtter 🤣

Lovely evening out in a restaurant with my mother and my two young nieces, who were really chatty and lovely company. Great to see them grow up. ❤️ Now in a blissfully quiet train back to the Dam. 🕺
