at het Goethe Institute on the Herengracht

From 2006 to 2012, many Dutch and international musicians performed in the charming room of the Goethe Institute in the center of Amsterdam.

Gallery of Tones was given the space to organize this series around the piano, so that the audience could enjoy the sounds from a beautiful Steinway Grand.
