As of 1 October 2013, Rozalie Hirs is columnist for Preludium, program magazine for the Concertgebouw and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. She shares this position with Elmer Schönberger. Together, Schönberger and Hirs provide ten columns a year.
Her very first column, ‘Listening,’ can be read this month in Preludium, a tribute to the singers Christianne Stotijn and Barbara Hannigan. Happy reading (and listening)!
