On Tuesday night at the KAdECafé, the documentary The Tuesday night feeling featured. Director Marlou van den Berge followed the Amsterdam Mixed Choir for two years. The choir was hit disproportionately hard by the Covid-19 virus. More than a hundred people fell ill, one choir member and three partners of choir members died. The choir continued to sing, from home, one and a half feet away and tentatively together again. The Tuesday night feeling shows in a unique time document how a close-knit group struggles with the great suffering that befalls them. After the documentary there will be a Q&A with Marlou van den Berge and the president of Koornetwerk Nederland, Daphne Wassink. Moderator at this post-screening discussion is Ellen van Genuchten of Platform Amateurkunst Amersfoort.

'In the corona media library, the film certainly deserves a place. In the music media library, too, in that the chorus in the sound score sings of self, tragedy and mourning in music by Paul M. van Brugge, to a libretto by Ester Naomi Perquin' (De Groene Amsterdammer)
'The result is a moving time document in which the various phases of the pandemic, such as loneliness, cautious rapprochement and exclusion are palpable, both on an individual and collective level' (VPRO GUIDE)
