Last weekend I taught a bagpipe class during the workshopday of @stichtingdraailierdoedelzak ! It was so much fun to do and the participants were very motivated and attentive. At the end of the day we gave a little demonstration of what we practiced to the other groups.

I'm finally making progress on this tune! I'll need a little more practice to get the timing even better (and to look a little less focussed while playing 😄), and then... 🤘🤘🤘😆

When you are going to assist participants of your favorite fantasy festival with trying out a bagpipe for the first time, you need an appropriate outfit. So I sewed myself this combo of a skirt, dress, and bolero jacket out of a piece of lovely red linnen I had in my fabric stash, from a pattern I drafted myself!

You may encounter me there as one of the bagpipe instructors at the instrument try-outs from @stichtingdraailierdoedelzak ! So if you've always wanted to try playing a #bagpipe (or #hurdy-gurdy, #diatonic accordeon or #harp), come see us at the Koetshuis!

We just released the second videoclip of one of our songs! This is 'Bourrée la Forficule', performed with my band @androneda_balfolk_music .

The tune was written by my band member Wouter Kuyper, the audio recording is by studio El Condor, and the video is home made by me. 😀

What do you think?

We just released our very first music video with my band @androneda_balfolk_music!

Last year we recorded some of our songs for fun and as a learning experience in the 'El Condor' studio in Belgium, and they turned out to be rather nice! So we decided to create a video clip to go along with this song. And here it is! ^_^

I wrote the song in the local dialect of the region I grew up in (Limburg, the Netherlands), so it has Dutch subtitles. 🙂
For my followers who don't speak Dutch: the song is about our cat who had to go when I was very young, because my sister turned out to be allergic to him. But my parents didn't have the heart to tell me about it...

Another lovely 5 star review of my book "Alice's Adventures under Water"! However, I think the most amazing part is that an English teacher deemed it good enough to read it with his students - and they even enjoyed it a lot! 😍

Yesterday I was on national tv with my medieval band 'De Soete Inval'!! 🤩📺🎦

Last August we were asked to take part in the recordings for the tv show 'Down the road', presented by @gordonheuckeroth. The participants would be having a medieval dinner and they wanted medieval music for the participants to dance on. That's where we came in. 🙂

It was a very special and interesting experience! I wasn't allowed to say something about it until the show aired on tv, but now you can watch the episode at bit.ly/down-the-road (in Dutch).

Last Saturday I had the privilege to sing with @kschoicemusic!! 😱🤩

I've been a long time fan of K's Choice and it was absolutely amazing to perform on stage with them! (And I was positioned DIRECTLY BEHIND THEM!) 😍😍😍

The choir I was part of consisted of people from the LGBTQ+ community plus allies, which was a special project for the @whatyouseefestival. The show was a one time occasion, which is unfortunate, because I would love to do this again!

The festival season is slowly coming to an end. I've been very busy performing with my medieval band 'De Soete Inval' during the past months, but it is now time to clear away the costumes and tents, and work on new projects and rehearse with my other band. Looking forward to that as well!
