LIVE AT OUR PLACE: Peter Willems Trio + Maat Saxophone Quartet
January 10, 2025

Time: 20h30-00h (doors open at 20h)          Price: €10 pre-sales* / €14 at the door / €2 with Stadspas**

For January's edition of Live at Our Place we are putting together two very special and diverse acts that will for sure get you grooving. 

With truly authentic and risky sounds, the Peter Willems Trio tells intensely personal stories by mixing traditional jazz, folk music and singer-songwriter jazz. Matt Saxophone Quartet will present their most recent program, Saguí, an homage to the culture, music and people of Brazil, which they visited last year to work with communities, saxophone students, and teachers. The program includes the following three pieces that reflect Brazilian culture and musical heritage:

  • “String Quartet No. 1” by Heitor Villa-Lobos, a piece that blends classical form with Brazilian character. 
  • “Brazilian Landscapes” by Liduino Pitombeira, which evokes Brazil’s natural cultural diversity and its folk music. 
  • Tico-Tico no Fubá by Zequinha de Abreu, a lively and well-loved piece of Brazilian popular music.

Together, these works celebrate Brazil’s rich musical traditions and the connection Maat has built with the country over the years.


Live at Our Place is a series of monthly intimate concerts by Treehouse NDSM's musicians-in-residence. Our industrial Pavilion building will be turned into the musicians' own living room, tuned each time to their own particular style and vibe. We invite you to our place, grab a drink, sit on the couch (or dance!), and enjoy the tunes that our talented community is working on during their stay at Treehouse NDSM.
