Experience Juliette Hurel live on November 29th

Juliette Hurel, a French harpist recognized for her interpretations of contemporary and 20th-century repertoire alongside standard classical works, will perform at De Doelen in Rotterdam on November 29, 2026. Her musical approach is often described as poetic and nuanced, frequently incorporating improvisation and exploring the harp’s sonic possibilities beyond traditional techniques. She is known for commissioning new pieces and collaborating with composers to expand the instrument’s role in modern music.

De Doelen is a renowned concert hall in Rotterdam, Netherlands, with a rich history dating back to 1830. Originally built as a shooting range (“Doelen” translates to “targets”), it was converted into a concert venue in the late 19th century. The current main hall, the Grote Zaal, opened in 1966 and is celebrated for its exceptional acoustics and modernist architectural design by Hugh Maaskant.

Throughout its existence, De Doelen has hosted performances by prominent international musicians across various genres including classical, jazz, and world music. It serves as a significant cultural hub within Rotterdam and is home to the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra.
