About this event
A properly good free Sunday: fifty players of Hong Kong's Ying Wa Symphonic Band open at midday, then Ghanaian-Dutch trumpeter Peter Somuah brings his band alongside vocalist Diana Sidibè in the afternoon. Classical at noon and Afro-jazz at three, both outdoors, both free — the Vondelpark theatre's weekly formula at its best.
Why we picked it
Two contrasting, genuinely notable acts on one free afternoon, inside the priority window and easy for readers to combine with a park picnic.
