DAY 5 | TUESDAY 13 MAY 2025

5TH OF 10 NIGHTS AT PARK CENTRAAL AMSTERDAM

DAY TRIP TO THE HAGUE (B):

This morning we set out on a private guided tour to the Hague, the capital city of the Netherlands. In The Hague we first visit The Mauritshuis, an art museum containing a superb collection of Dutch Golden Age (17th-century) paintings, including works by Johannes Vermeer, Rembrandt van Rijn, Jan Steen, Paulus Potter, Frans Hals, Jacob van Ruisdael, Hans Holbein the Younger, and others. We enjoy a private guided tour of some of the most famous and fascinating works.

After our visit to the art gallery, we have some free time to have lunch; there is a restaurant in the gallery and there are many only a few minutes away. You might also like to stroll around the attractive site of the Netherlands government, The Binnenhof, a complex of buildings in the centre of The Hague, and only about 2-minutes walk away from The Mauritshuis. The buildings back onto a beautiful lake where there are plenty of seats to relax and take a break.

We then meet together to travel to the Mesdag Panorama, a cylindrical painting more than 14 metres high and about 40 metres in diameter (120 metres in circumference) by Hendrik Willem Mesdag. From an observation gallery in the centre of the purpose-built edifice, the cylindrical perspective creates the illusion that one is in 19th-century Scheveningen, a fishermen’s town, that has not yet grown into The Hague. Standing in the middle of the painting makes you feel like you are viewing the Netherlands of a bygone era from a watchtower.

Following our visit to the Mesdag Panorama we return to our hotel in Amsterdam, with time to refresh prior to Graham Abbott’s talk which will focus on Mahler’s Symphony No. 5, which we will hear performed at 8:15pm by the Budapest Festival Orchestra.

6TH OF 10 NIGHTS AT PARK CENTRAAL AMSTERDAM

AMSTERDAM (B, L):

In the morning Graham will give a talk about Mahler’s sixth symphony. Following this, we will enjoy lunch together.

The afternoon is then free and you might like to visit the Anne Frank House, which is around a 30-minute walk away, or a 5-minute journey in a taxi. This museum, the Anne Frank Huis, is a biographical museum dedicated to the Jewish wartime diarist, Anne Frank, who hid from the Nazis in secret hidden rooms, the Secret Annex, at the back of the house during World War II.  She did not survive the war but her wartime diary was published in 1947. Ten years later the Anne Frank Foundation was established to protect the property from developers who wanted to demolish the block. The museum, opened on 3 May 1960, preserves the hiding place, has a permanent exhibition on the life and times of Anne Frank, and has an exhibition space about all forms of persecution and discrimination. In 2013 and 2014, the museum had 1.2 million visitors and was the 3rd most visited museum in the Netherlands after the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum.

At 8:15pm we hear the remarkable Chicago Symphony Orchestra perform Symphony No. 6.

DAY 7 | THURSDAY 15 MAY 2025

7TH OF 10 NIGHTS AT PARK CENTRAAL AMSTERDAM

AMSTERDAM & THE ROYAL PALACE (B):

In the morning we visit the heart of Amsterdam to have a private guided tour of the Royal Palace, the King’s official reception palace, which plays a major role during state visits, and other royal occasions, such as New Year’s receptions, gala dinners and award ceremonies. The Palace is the largest and most prestigious building from the 17th-century, making it one of the Netherlands’ most important monuments. It was originally built as Amsterdam’s town hall, its design by architect Jan van Campen intended to reflect the power and wealth of 17th-century Amsterdam, and the grandeur of that time is still alive in the Citizen’s Hall and marble galleries. Impressive sculptures and paintings by famous artists such as Rembrandt’s students, Govert Flinck and Ferdinand Bol, tell the story of Amsterdam as the centre of the universe. In 1808, King Louis Bonaparte made a triumphal entry into Amsterdam as his brother Emperor Napoleon had made him King of Holland in order to increase French influence in Holland. The new king found only the Amsterdam Town Hall worthy to be his palace and his stay is still tangible today, particularly in his magnificent Empire furniture, one of the most beautiful collections in the world, which is still used during royal receptions.

The afternoon is then free.

We come together in the evening for Graham Abbott’s talk which will focus on Mahler’s Seventh Symphony. At 8:15pm we once again hear the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Jaap van Zweden perform the Seventh Symphony.

CONCERT 7 – THE CONCERTGEBOUW, 8:15pm
Gustav Mahler
Symphony No. 7

Chicago Symphony Orchestra
Jaap van Zweden, conductor

DAY 8 | FRIDAY 16 MAY 2025

8TH OF 10 NIGHTS AT PARK CENTRAAL AMSTERDAM

AMSTERDAM & THE MUSEUM VAN LOON (B):

This morning Graham Abbott’s talk will focus on Mahler’s Eighth Symphony.

We then encounter some of the fascinating history of Amsterdam on our private guided tour of Museum Van Loon which, with its unique ensemble of canal house, interior, collection of portraits, beautiful furniture, fine silverware and porcelain from different centuries, and with its garden and coach house, is one of the most beautiful and often visited historic houses in the Netherlands. The museum, located in the heart of Amsterdam's canal ring, was designed in 1672 and the first occupant was the painter Ferdinand Bol, a pupil of Rembrandt. The Van Loon family, which originally came from Loon op Zand in Brabant and settled in Amsterdam in the 17th-century, were the last residents of the canal house and the founders of the museum. The family was linked for centuries to the trade and administration of the city. Willem van Loon was one of the founders of the VOC (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie, or The United East India Company) which was a chartered company established on 20 March 1602 by the States General of the Netherlands amalgamating existing companies into the first joint-stock company in the world, granting it a 21-year monopoly to carry out trade activities in Asia. Several other family members later became mayors of Amsterdam, among others. In the 19th-century, the family was ennobled. Museum Van Loon is one of the most beautiful and best-visited historic houses in the Netherlands.

Our afternoon is free.

At 8:15pm we attend Mahler’s Symphony No. 8 performed by The Concertgebouw Orchestra and soon-to-be chief conductor Klaus Mäkelä.

DAY 9 | SATURDAY 17 MAY 2025

9TH OF 10 NIGHTS AT PARK CENTRAAL AMSTERDAM

AMSTERDAM & THE REMBRANDT HOUSE (B):

This morning’s talk by Graham Abbott will explore Mahler’s Symphony No. 9.

We then have a private guided tour of the house of Rembrandt van Rijn. Located among the picturesque canal houses of central Amsterdam, the Rembrandt House is where Rembrandt lived and had his studio and art dealership, between 1639 and 1658. Built around 1606 and renovated around 1627, it was bought by Rembrandt in 1639 for 13 thousand guilders and auctioned for eleven thousand guilders in 1658 after his bankruptcy. In the following centuries it was used as a residence and was renovated several times. By the beginning of the 20th-century the building was in poor condition, and it was purchased by the municipality of Amsterdam in 1907, and donated to the Rembrandthuis foundation. Between 1907 and 1911 the building was redesigned on the basis of the inventory that was drawn up during Rembrandt's bankruptcy in 1656. The current museum shows Rembrandt's living and working quarters, including his living room, art room and the studio where he created his masterpieces. This gives the visitor an idea of Rembrandt's daily life, his studio practice and what a private house and artist's studio looked like in the 17th-century. The museum is dedicated to Rembrandt’s life and works and features a nearly complete collection of his etchings.

Our afternoon is free and at 8:15pm we attend Mahler’s Symphony No. 9 performed by the Berliner Philharmoniker with Chief Conductor, Kirill Petrenko.
