Otter Songs (6+)

Fulco Ottervanger is a musician like no other: a sonic chameleon, an inexhaustible wellspring of ideas, a virtuoso jazz pianist, a musical storyteller …

In recent years, he has made a name for himself with his Dutch-language songs. Wonderkind, Grote broer, Blijf maar zitten and Een beetje verfrommeld found their way to a wide audience via the radio and concert halls. In these songs, Fulco combines poetic lyrics with a distinctive pop sound, somewhere between cabaret, synth-pop and dreamy piano music. 

With the intimate Ohrwurm, Fulco continues to build on this series of Dutch-language songs, but this time for a young audience. He takes to the stage solo with a selection of new and old songs, a guitar and a keyboard. Once again, we hear the Fulco we know from Zonzo Compagnie’s brilliant Slumberland. Who knows – perhaps the Sandman, the Sleep Professional and Little Dark Man will get a sequel, more than ten years after they first appeared.
