Muziekmakers der Nederlanden is a podcast by New Music Now and the Concertzender. Tune in to the playlist episodes of Muziekmakers der Nederlanden every Thursday at 12 noon on the Concertzender. It features portraits of composers, musicians and other music-makers in the Netherlands, based on their ‘desert island discs’ – the pieces of music they would most like to share with the world, and which have played an important role in their work and lives.
