Dauw 4+

You hear the water dripping gently from the plants.

In the distance, the chirping of a cricket.

It's the blue hour.

The time between day and night when everyone is still asleep but also, almost awake.

The moon has just left, but the sun has not yet risen.

What happens in the blue hour?

Who is secretly already awake?

Who is waiting for the sun to arrive?

Who would rather keep hiding in the dark?

Dauw is an intimate family concert where the magic of the blue hour and the Andalusian and Arab music take you on a journey in a dream world. The Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra tells the story you can hear in the music. The ancient instruments - ud, ney and rabab - bring a rich repertoire that ranges from Granada to Baghdad. Theatrical elements, humour and playfulness make Dauw a visual listening experience, accessible to everyone aged from 6 to 106. In Oorkaan theatrical concerts, the musicians play the music off by heart and from the heart. Their style of playing is physical, a language every child can identify with. And 'Language is no problem', because the only language heard is that of the music.
