Nynke Laverman and Sytze Pruiksma carry OAK/Plant through Nunhem, Liempde and Rijs, returning language and rhythm to the trees.
What you need to know
The most unusual seats at these concerts are not in the front row; they are the living trees surrounding the performers. In OAK/Plant, Nynke Laverman and percussionist Sytze Pruiksma combine English and Frisian songs, spoken text and rhythm addressed to trees, animals and stones, with inspiration reaching toward Kazakh nomadic culture. The summer route begins with two Nunhem performances on 14 August, continues in Liempde on 15 August and reaches Rijs on 30 August. Wind, birds and changing light inevitably enter the work, so the appeal is not a perfectly repeated indoor set. It is a listening situation that accepts place and weather as collaborators. Each date has its own entrance and conditions.
- Nunhem has performances at 11:30 and 15:30 on 14 August.
- The route continues in Liempde on 15 August and Rijs on 30 August.
- English and Frisian songs meet spoken word and live percussion.
- Outdoor conditions differ, so verify weather and arrival details for your chosen date.
Hokimi field note: Pick the location that fits your route rather than chasing all three, and wear something suitable for changing ground and weather.
