We are honoured to welcome Claire Edwardes, Australia’s ‘sorceress of percussion, for a unique meditation concert that invites you to slow down and tune in.

A four-time APRA Art Music Luminary Award winner, Claire is an extraordinary force in contemporary music: a virtuosic performer, artistic leader, and cultural advocate. Her work spans over 80 commissioned solo pieces and collaborations with composers such as Steve Reich, Harrison Birtwistle, and Anna Meredith.

In this intimate setting, sound becomes breath, rhythm becomes ritual.

On 21 March, TROMP Percussion presents DAUW at Dynamo: a meditation concert where rhythm and stillness meet.

Together with zen teacher, percussionist Agostinho Sequeira (Prize Winner of the TROMP International Percussion Competition 2020) invites you into a unique listening experience.

The morning begins with a short guided meditation, followed by a live performance in which Agostinho creates an intense, physical and deeply personal sound world. His playing moves between hypnotic rhythms, resonant textures and expressive gestures, drawing you fully into the moment.

No meditation experience. No musical background. Just come as you are.

📍 21 March 2026 | 11:00 AM | Dynamo, Eindhoven

DAUW Meditation Concert | This Sunday

In a world that moves ever faster, DAUW offers a space to slow down.

This Sunday, we begin with a guided meditation by a Zen teacher. From that quiet focus, percussionist Yifan Du lets the concert unfold. Singing bowls, marimba, gongs and vibraphone creating a deeply resonant and immersive sound experience.

No prior experience with meditation or music is needed. Just bring your presence.
