CineMusic is a concert show where the audience is treated to an evening of the most beautiful film music, played live by our orchestra. During the show, you will hear music from more than 20 different, famous films. From western to animation and from action to romance, everything is included. <\/p>\n

In the cinema, everything revolves around the film images and the story; the music seems secondary. In the theater, we reverse the roles and put the music in the spotlight. That doesn’t mean we do without the film images. Above the orchestra hangs the large white screen, on which the most beautiful scenes from each film can be seen. Unique: we choose the film scenes ourselves, so they perfectly match the music. We use original film material, which we are allowed to show under license from the producer. We approach the composition of our clips with integrity and respect and strive to convey the authenticity of the film as faithfully as possible. <\/p>\n

The CineMusic Orchestra<\/strong><\/h4>\n

This film orchestra, led by conductor Henk Ummels, consists of highly professional musicians during the tour, including musicians from the Metropole Orchestra, the Sch\u00f6nberg Ensemble, and The Hague Philharmonic. Section leaders are concertmaster Hester van der Vlugt, Sebastian Ohm (wind instruments) and Ruud Luttikhuizen (rhythm & percussion). <\/p>\n

The presenter<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The evening is presented by film journalist Ren\u00e9 Mioch. Between the pieces of music, he talks about his encounters and conversations with composers, actors, and directors and reveals things you would otherwise never have known.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

Prosperity Community<\/span><\/span><\/h4>

Sustainability is one of our top priorities. Nevertheless, we cannot avoid leaving an ecological footprint with our performances. Not only for the transport of our orchestra, the instruments, lighting, set, etcetera, but also our visitors must be able to come to the theater. To minimize this ecological footprint, we have entered into a partnership with the Prosperity Community and have decided to have a tree planted in a country around the equator for every visitor to The CineMusic Experience. Read more here<\/a> about Prosperity Community. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Production<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

The CineMusic Experience would not have been possible without the help of specialists and experts in the field of music, direction, video, light, sound and social media. Our partners ensure that the concert show becomes a breathtaking experience.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>

Arrangers<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

The following arrangers have made an important contribution to arranging the fantastic film music for our large orchestra: Ton van Grevenbroek, Jos Pijnappel, Edwin Paarlberg, Sebastian Ohm and Henk Ummels. The CineMusic tune is composed by Ton van Grevenbroek.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

ARTISTIC DIRECTION<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

The orchestra may be number 1, but the audience’s experience and whether the performance exudes the right atmosphere are at least as important. From the moment of entry to a view of the stage, it must impress the audience. Stef Heijnen-Bakker from studio HB-Staging<\/a> has been responsible for the art direction and design since 2021. His knowledge, experience and, above all, creativity are of great value to CineMusic.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>
\"\"<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

VIDEO<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

Just imagine creating fascinating compositions of the film music numbers. Because how do you summarize a film of three and a half hours as a synopsis in less than 5 minutes. Stephan Vos and Sjoerd Stadt from Foxity<\/a> don’t turn their hand for it. With their refreshing view, knowledge of video technology and enthusiasm of their team, they deliver a special performance. This is how you create experience with video.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>
\"\"<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

SOUND<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

Playing a large and amplified orchestra in churches is a major challenge. How do you get the acoustics under control there? Pieter Ratten from P-S-L<\/a> is a sound engineer pur sang and, together with Lars, ensures an optimal sound experience of the film music.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

CREATION & Communication<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

For visibility on the street, in the newspaper, with flyers at cultural places and company mailings, we work closely with Maurice Beers from M68<\/a>. Add to that the construction of an attractive and user-friendly website, and creative communication arises.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>
\"\"<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

TEXTS<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

For our communication on social media channels, via newsletters, the program booklet and all other creative expressions in text, we work together with Monique Butter from Tekstbureau Mo.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

DIGITAL & SOCIAL MEDIA<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

Social media is indispensable for promotion. To allow our target group to experience The CineMusic Experience, Colouring Media<\/a> works closely with Job Luttikhuizen from CineCreations<\/a> and Foxity<\/a>, countless creations and content for stories, reels and feeds.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
