Amsterdam Sinfonietta & Huub van der Lubbe
For the annual, successful New Year's concerts, Amsterdam Sinfonietta joins forces with an artist outside the classical world: Huub van der Lubbe.
Previously, the orchestra collaborated with artists including Rufus Wainwright, Karsu and Maria Mena. Now it's Huub van der Lubbe's turn. Following the memorable tour with De Dijk in 2014, he returns solo to the orchestra. His rendition of Jacques Brel's Amsterdam with Amsterdam Sinfonietta at the Prinsengrachtconcert 2025 was a brief prelude to this collaboration.
Van der Lubbe was frontman of the iconic band De Dijk for over forty years, acted in various films and musicals and now also performs solo or with small ensembles in theaters. Together with the orchestra, he presents his own songs alongside hits from De Dijk, naturally interwoven with classical repertoire.
