Pale Thoughts
Splendor, Sunday, November 29 at 08:00 PM GMT+1
Nora Fischer presents:Forbidden music in performance, film, and storytellingMany people know the name of Frieda Belinfante; the Jewish and queer cellist who became a fierce resistance fighter in occupied Amsterdam, and went on to become the world’s first female conductor of a professional orchestra. Less people know the name of her relative Daniël Belinfante: a brilliant composer working in Amsterdam before dying in Auschwitz in 1945, just before Liberation Day.
At the core of this evening will be the performance of several of Daniël Belinfante’s song sketches that have never before found their way to the stage. One of those, Pale Thoughts, provides tonight’s title as an exploration of both the indistinct past and the incomprehensible.
These songs, together with other contemporary counterpoints, will be performed by the extraordinary singer Patricia Auchterlonie. The music will be interleaved with new film vignettes created by artist – and ancestor – Sam Belinfante from new and archival materials of Frieda, Daniël, and Amsterdam’s lost Jewish Quarter. Music and film, then, will be interwoven by stories told by Nora Fischer about the neighbourhood’s history, war resistance, and the performers’ own reflections on genealogy and intergenerational trauma.
In collaboration with Festival Forbidden Music Regained and The Leo Smit Foundation. Supported by Vaughan Williams Foundation and The Marchus Trust.

20:00 TRAUMA PARTY
Underdog children of the digital era, but struggling to cope with what's required to live in it: superficiality and lack of humanity and empathy, downgrading of human emotions, feelings, creativeness, individuality and real connections. This struggle is downright traumatizing. Hence we came up with our own concept called the TRAUMA PARTY: it's not only music, it's words, language, images, vibes, feeling, movement. It's a ritual that allows yourself to FEEL and BEING HUMAN again despite the system being built to make it harder and harder for you: it's catharsis and therapy through dance and music, facing your traumas and the hurt that living like this gave you and SWEATING IT OUT OF YOUR BODY. Thriving in the contradiction and imperfection of being human through creating art that faces the contradiction of the system and self-destroying mechanisms and dynamics we jailed ourselves in.
WELCOME TO THE TRAUMA PARTY.

Thea Paulsrud Jazz & soul (NO)
Teatro Munganga, Thursday, October 1 at 08:00 PM GMT+2
Nederlands onderaan The Norwegian Thea Paulsrud is a vocalist, storyteller and artist known for captivating audiences with powerful vocal performances and with thought-provoking lyrics. Her music is rooted in traditional soul, with a striking edge and melodic nods to the jazz standard repertoire. In spring 2025, Paulsrud released her debut full-length album _Lay With Me For A While_, praised by critic Øyvind Rønning as "a highly successful marriage between soul and jazz." The material from this album forms the core of her live performances. On stage, Paulsrud is joined by an exceptional band of musicians. Not only are they remarkably tight as an ensemble, they also shine as distinctive soloists. Together, they create a playful, acoustic soundscape that moves both the dance floor and the heart.
With a natural charisma that instantly draws smiles from the audience, Thea Paulsrud promises a concert experience that offers both joy and reflection. Critic Tor Hammerø stated upon the album's release that he was "very happy to have discovered Thea Paulsrud already." Chances are you'll feel the same after experiencing her live. Band members:
Thea Paulsrud - vocals
Matias Steinnes Christoffersen - piano (Ragnhild Og., Fabeldyr, Brainchild)
Øyvind Kløve Kjernlie - guitar (Emelie Hollow, Ole Kirkeng, KLÖVE)
Andreas Svabø - bass (Gabriela Garrubo, Rino Sivathas, Lyder Røed Quintet, Bård Berg)
Vegard Staum - drums (Gouldian Finch, Sojum Klub, Soft City, Vegard & Ivar Band) In recent years, Paulsrud and Staum have also been prominent figures in the Scandinavian blues scene through the band Soft City, performing at festivals such as Molde Jazz Festival and Notodden Blues Festival.
In 2023, the band toured Mississippi and Tennessee — the cradle of the blues. Paulsrud's voice has received notable acclaim within the blues community as well:
Dagens Næringsliv describes her as a "powerhouse singer," while Nettavisen calls her voice "tough, perfectly raw, and deeply convincing — she delivers something real and believable." NED
De Noorse Thea Paulsrud is een zangeres, verhalenvertelster en artieste die bekendstaat om haar vermogen om het publiek te boeien met krachtige vocale optredens en tot nadenken stemmende teksten. Haar muziek vindt zijn oorsprong in de traditionele soul, met een opvallend rauw randje en melodische verwijzingen naar het standaardrepertoire van de jazz. In het voorjaar van 2025 bracht Paulsrud haar debuutalbum _Lay With Me For A While_ uit, door criticus Øyvind Rønning geprezen als “een zeer geslaagde combinatie van soul en jazz.” Het materiaal van dit album vormt de kern van haar liveoptredens. Op het podium wordt Paulsrud vergezeld door een uitzonderlijke band van muzikanten. Ze zijn niet alleen opmerkelijk hecht als ensemble, maar schitteren ook als onderscheidende solisten. Samen creëren ze een speels, akoestisch geluidslandschap dat zowel de dansvloer als het hart in beweging brengt. Met een natuurlijk charisma dat onmiddellijk een glimlach op het gezicht van het publiek tovert, belooft Thea Paulsrud een concertervaring die zowel vreugde als bezinning biedt. Criticus Tor Hammerø verklaarde bij de release van het album dat hij “erg blij was Thea Paulsrud al ontdekt te hebben.” De kans is groot dat u hetzelfde zult voelen na haar live-optreden. Bandleden:
Thea Paulsrud - zang
Matias Steinnes Christoffersen - piano (Ragnhild Og., Fabeldyr, Brainchild)
Øyvind Kløve Kjernlie - gitaar (Emelie Hollow, Ole Kirkeng, KLÖVE)
Andreas Svabø - bas (Gabriela Garrubo, Rino Sivathas, Lyder Røed Quintet, Bård Berg)
Vegard Staum - drums (Gouldian Finch, Sojum Klub, Soft City, Vegard & Ivar Band) De afgelopen jaren hebben Paulsrud en Staum zich via de band Soft City ook geprofileerd in de Scandinavische blueswereld, met optredens op festivals als het Molde Jazz Festival en het Notodden Blues Festival.
In 2023 toerde de band door Mississippi en Tennessee – de bakermat van de blues. Paulsruds stem is ook binnen de bluesgemeenschap zeer geprezen:
Dagens Næringsliv omschrijft haar als een “krachtige zangeres”, terwijl Nettavisen haar stem “stoer, perfect rauw en diep overtuigend” noemt – “ze brengt iets echts en geloofwaardigs.”https://offbeat.amsterdam/event/thea-paulsrud-jazz-and-soul-no
