Nikola Meeuwsen live in The Hague

Experience Nikola Meeuwsen live on March 19th

Nikola Meeuwsen, a Dutch composer and performer, will present a concert at Nieuwe Kerk in The Hague on March 19, 2027. Meeuwsen’s work is characterized by its exploration of microtonality and just intonation, often employing self-built instruments and extended vocal techniques. Her compositions frequently blend acoustic and electronic elements, creating immersive soundscapes that challenge conventional harmonic structures. A core element of her practice involves researching and reviving historical tuning systems alongside developing new ones.

Nieuwe Kerk (New Church), The Hague, dates back to the 17th century, consecrated in 1652. Originally built as a church for the growing Protestant population, it served as a place of worship for centuries. Following a significant renovation completed in 1980, it transitioned into a multi-purpose cultural venue hosting exhibitions, concerts, and official state functions. The building is notable for its baroque architecture and its central location on the Spui square. It has hosted numerous prominent musical performances across various genres throughout its history as a cultural center and remains an important landmark within the city. The space’s acoustics are considered well-suited to both choral and instrumental music.
