Listen to one of the world's most beautiful grand pianosSarah
Soyeon Kim plays on one of the world's most beautiful grand pianos in the new Edesche Concert Hall: the Bösendorfer Imperial 290. This grand piano, extended to eight octaves, is almost 3 metres long, and partly because of that gives a beautiful sound. In the Netherlands this concert grand piano can only be found in the new Edesche Concert Hall. Anna Tyshayeva, the first pianist in our 'World Pianists' series, remarked about this grand piano: "Real excellent", Wibi Soerjadi about the combination with this concert hall: "phenomenal acoustics" and others: "everything is perfect". After his first concert in the Edesche Concert Hall, Jan Vayne was extremely enthusiastic: "Fantastic atmosphere, beautiful grand piano/organ!

Come and listen in the intimate Edesche Concert HallThe
Edesche Concert Hall is busy with its first season, the try out season. Completely unsubsidized, a beautiful concert hall, very suitable for chamber music, has been created in a short period of time. The Edesche Concert Hall is worth a visit, both for the Edanese audience and for visitors from all over the Netherlands. Both by car and public transport centrally located and very easy to reach.
