Ophelia's next appearance

With a strikingly candid approach, the Flemish soprano Katrien Baerts grants the audience a glimpse behind the scenes, revealing the rarely seen aspects of an artist’s life. Together with Asko|Schönberg she brings her beloved repertoire to life in a performance that delves into the themes of honesty, control, vulnerability, loneliness and connection. 

Katrien Baerts is known for tackling contemporary pieces that are often incredibly difficult to sing. Her powerful, sensual voice, perfect diction, and profound, heartfelt interpretations have earned her widespread recognition. Since her 2010 debut in Rob Zuidam’s Suster Bertken, she has enjoyed international acclaim.
