NTR Saturday Matinee

The NTR Saturday Matinee is known nationally and internationally for its original programming: brand new work by leading contemporary composers, the state of affairs in international Baroque music, unique opera productions, and five centuries of vocal-symphonic music. With a leading role for the Groot Omroepkoor and the Radio Philharmonic Orchestra, which were founded in 1945.

NTR Saturday Matinee

Season 64 (2024-2025)
This 64th season features the artistic signature you've come to expect from the Matinee. An adventurous signature that is praised in the Netherlands and far beyond for good reason. Led by the Radio Philharmonic Orchestra and the Groot Omroepkoor, standard bearers of the series, listeners can look forward to no fewer than 32 concerts. To undiscovered gems, high-profile concert operas, classics in surprising performances and of course to numerous new compositions, often commissioned by the NTR ZaterdagMatinee. Naturally performed by top level artists. With conductors such as René Jacobs, Lahav Shani and Karina Canellakis and soloists such as András Schiff, Patricia Kopatchinskaja and Pierre-Laurent Aimard.

New series
In season 2024/25, in addition to the familiar partial series, two new series will see the light of day. The series NXT GEN dedicated to a new generation of artists and a two-part series in collaboration with the Holland Festival.
