Emine Bostancı live in Amsterdam

Experience Emine Bostancı live on July 30th

Emine Bostancı is a Turkish vocalist and composer whose work blends traditional Turkish folk music with contemporary jazz and experimental elements. Her performances often feature extended vocal techniques, incorporating improvisation and exploring themes of Anatolian polyphony and ritualistic music traditions. She frequently collaborates with musicians from diverse backgrounds, resulting in a sound that is both deeply rooted in heritage and strikingly modern.

The Moses And Aaron Church, officially the Church of St. Anthony of Padua, in Amsterdam is renowned for its striking architectural design by Benthem Crouwel Architekten, completed in 1975. Constructed as a replacement for a previous church destroyed during World War II, it’s notable for its minimalist concrete exterior and uniquely designed interior lighting system which dynamically adjusts throughout the day. The church’s acoustics are highly regarded, making it a popular venue for concerts, particularly those featuring choral or vocal performances. Its design intentionally avoids traditional religious iconography, focusing instead on creating a contemplative atmosphere through light and space. The building serves as an active Roman Catholic parish church while also functioning as a cultural center hosting various events.

A performance by Emine Bostancı is scheduled within this space on July 30th, 2026.
