A dream coming true. What a gift it has been to have my composition "The Other Side" played by one of the best youth orchestras on the planet, with both Dutch and German premiers, in @zwitsalhal, @zuiderparktheater, @caprera.openluchttheater and a sold out @konzerthausberlin 🇩🇪.

@jongmetropole, once again you've shown why creating and making music together is one of the most powerful things. Thanks to every single individual for letting me be so much part of this beautiful process once again.

@jacomobairos, thanks for not only your leadership and artistic vision, but for inspiring me in so many ways. You made the piece and whole orchestra elevate to a whole new level.

Soon more information about the piece and its digital release!

A small recap of the past 2 weeks :)
I was fortunate enough to be selected not only for the @popcollegetour_ but also for the @codartsrotterdam Pop Orchestra!
I've learned so much about my band, things I'd like to change about myself but also things that I'm good at!

I'm so grateful for the SICKEST of the SICKEST artists/bands I've ever met and I'll be supporting y'all DOWN!!! 😎💛
