Wiek Hijmans

Performing new music with electric guitar since 1987

Welcome!

Due to corona, things are unsure. Please contact me for the latest concert info.

Very moving to see someone so dedicated to research what I have been doing. Thanks Mr. Aguzzi!

NEWS: On behalf of the Holland Festival, I kicked off the estafette performance of Calliope Tsoupaki's Thin Air (for solo instrument).

A new initiative to commemorate all the suffering caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Festivals for Compassion is a collaboration of more than 40 European major music festivals.
