Record and pictures of the jubileum concert on November 24, 2024

On November 24th we celebrated our 75th anniversary with a concert in the Regenboogkerk. The audience enjoyed, among others, Adriaan Kramer who performed in the trumpet concerto of Alexander Arutiunian. 

The recordings of the concert can be found on Youtube.

After the concert we had dinner together. As a dessert, a small group of members surprised us and performed some with cheerful contemporary music pieces.

The Leids Harmonie Orkest moves to De Thermiek

As long as memory lasts, the orchestra has rehearsed in the Youth Village in Leiden South. However, this idyllic park will become an industrial area, so we had to find a new location. We are very happy that the school De Thermiek allows us to use their auditorium for our rehearsals. Starting from September 4, 2024, our weekly Wednesday 20:00 rehearsal address is: 

De Thermiek, Blauwe Vogelweg 1, 2333 VK Leiden.
