A special addition to this year’s line-up is LUXE who will present REVERIE live. Performing on a flute, vocals & live electronics, accompanied by a string quartet and a Tilburg-based choral ensemble this is set to be a very unique live show at our Chapel.
Sometimes when you listen to a recording, it makes all the fibres in your body come alive. REVERIE is definitely that kind of unique collection of sounds that knows how to grab you by the throat and then gently release you, leaving you sighing and feeling like you’re sinking into the ground. It’s full of depth and surprises – like narratives sketched out by a flute or strings that hold your rapt attention. We can only imagine what it will be like to experience this album live in the middle of the forest.
While LUXE is widely known for her versatile yet highly focused DJ sets and productions, her musical journey is rooted in classical training in flute, piano and voice. It’s clear that her versatility stems from her diverse training, but whether she’s playing with hardware or performing live on instruments, there’s always a special sense of focus in LUXE’s creations. All of these facets will come together for a performance that promises to be both innovative and deeply moving.
We’re proud to commission this project and to bring it to life with the addition of a Tilburg-based choral ensemble. This performance will resonate deeply with what we imagine Draaimolen stands for, showcasing the evolving relationship between electronic production and live performance, and building connections between Tilburg and the forefront of electronic music around the world.
