Dearest….,
Hopefully everything is going well and you, like me, are glad to see the sun making an appearance now and then. Let’s hope for a beautiful and sunny spring!
Meanwhile, I’m in the process of finalizing my solo debut album, the neoclassical album I’ve mentioned before. The album is called “Natural” and was made in collaboration with producer and pianistย Cedric Vermue. After the album’s release at the end of September, I’ll be starting my tour across the country. I’m busy organizing it, BUT I need your help with this.
Do you know a suitable venue for around 30 to 60 people where I can perform my music? For example, a nice concert hall, garden, museum, castle, theater, living room, church, studio, or any other type of venue? I’d love to hear about it. Or do you know someone who organizes events at interesting places or is enthusiastic about organizing concerts, whom you think I should definitely get in touch with? I’d love to hear about them too.
It doesn’t matter where in the Netherlands (or maybe even abroad?), I’ll come to you. To give you an impression of the music, I’ve cut 30-second snippets from each track that you can already listen to via this private link. Feel free to share this link privately with a potential venue or programmer (please do not share it publicly):

I prefer not to give away too much about what I’m going to release just yet, but I understand that it’s easier to talk about when you know what kind of music it is. If you’d like to follow the album’s progress, check out myย Instagramย orย YouTubeย for the “Making of” videos. In the coming weeks, I’ll be posting regularly about the album’s production process.
And below you’ll find the promotional text:
NEOCLASSICAL EVENING WITH CELLO AND PIANO: DEBUT ALBUM RELEASE “NATURAL”
Enter a world of harmony, where cellist, singer, and composer Carly E (Carlijn van Wijk), along with neoclassical producer and pianist Cedric Vermue, brings her solo debut album “Natural” to life. This evening takes you on a journey with the melancholic melodies of the cello and the rhythm of nature, from sunrise to the appearance of the moon.
Expect serene acoustic cello and piano sounds that will completely captivate you. Feel free to close your eyes for the true musical experience. When you leave the venue, you will not only be inspired but also completely relaxed with new energy.
Carly E (Carlijn van Wijk) has been playing cello and singing from a young age. When she moved to London and Buenos Aires, she bid farewell to her classical music career and became a solo artist. She has conquered many stages with her original cello music, including the DeLaMar Theater and TedX. Her solo debut album “Natural” will be released in September 2024.

I’m really looking forward to sharing it with you, but a little patience is needed. The release date is set for FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27 at a fantastic venue: De Roode Bioscoop in Amsterdam (Haarlemmerplein 7, near Central Station). So, please SAVE THE DATE. It’s going to be a wonderful concert, where I’ll also invite other musicians who have contributed to the album. Hopefully, you can join us. Ticket sales will start in August.
