Robin Scherpen

Composer and guitarist Robin Scherpen takes you on a musical journey from darkness to light. The concert begins literally in the dark, without visual distraction, and from that melancholy and intimacy unfolds a world of images, stories, memories and personal experiences.

His guitar playing alternates between fragile and vulnerable, then hypnotic and virtuosic. In Memory & Traces, Scherpen explores what music means and whether it can truly change anything. The result is an intimate, compelling performance about happiness - not the happiness of success, recognition and applause, but that in which mind, body, soul and heart align once more.
