Gijsbert Kok

Gijsbert Kok can regularly be spotted at the carillon keyboards of The Hague, Scheveningen and Voorschoten. He also knows how to find the Dom Tower blindfolded. In three centuries of music - a variety of compositions for vihuela, guitar and keyboard instruments in arrangements of his own – Kok’s soundscape takes us through various Spanish regions. With the overture to Giacchino Rossini's Il barbiere di Siviglia, we predict singing throughout the city!
