Apeiron branches out into a program of light classical and popular music. Sadly, we can't bring a historical grand piano but rest assured that we be keeping historical performances techniques and tastes from the era close to our hearts!
The concert name (Twaalfuurtje) is inspired from our time in The Netherlands; literally translated, it means ’12 o'clock’ and colloquially, it refers to a simple, light and attractively priced lunch. We hope this fun concert functions as the musical equivalent of the Dutch twaalfuurtje; refreshing audiences for the afternoon ahead.

"John is better known for playing baroque on period instruments but he told me how punk and ska were influential in his younger life,so film mid-20th century film music seems not so out of field... Marie was influenced by the Beatles (which I understand fully) so the glorious and outspoken accompaniment from late C19th onwards is also not inconceivable."
"...devastatingly capable players."
"...a classic concert of great skills and beauty with a lovingly moderate conception.."
