                Saskia Ontbijt (Breakfast)
The Oude Kerk
During the breakfast, there will be musical performances curated from RLAC. A brand-new music trio formed by three young musicians - Trio Nadasan: Shana Brown (violinist), Aina Font (saxophonist), and Red Light Arts & Culture co-founder Adanya Dunn (mezzo-soprano), performs original compositions inspired by global folk melodies, dynamically interacting with their surroundings. Rooted in improvisation, they move freely through the space with their instruments, offering an immersive experience.
In the summer of 1642, Rembrandt buried his wife and muse, Saskia Uylenburgh, in the Oude Kerk. Every year on March 9th, precisely at nine minutes past eight-thirty in the morning, a sunbeam illuminates her grave. This special moment is annually commemorated with a breakfast, music, and a lecture.
