Mama Tori zoekt!, A Musical Workshop for the Whole Family

Why Mama Tori Matters in Haarlem Right Now

There's always something special happening in Haarlem, but the workshop "Mama Tori zoekt!" truly stands out. This musical storytelling project invites everyone to revisit their childhood and share the songs that have shaped them. It’s a chance to connect with family and friends through music and stories from various cultures. In a time when we often drift apart, sharing these memories can be a meaningful experience.

What to Expect During the Workshop

Mama Tori is a musical storytelling project for children, parents, grandparents, and other family members. During the free workshops on Wednesdays, September 16, 23, and 30, and October 7 from 14:30 to 15:30, participants are encouraged to gather children's songs, lullabies, and nursery rhymes. Songs in various languages, including Dutch, Frisian, Turkish, Arabic, and more, are welcome. This project emphasizes how music can bridge generations and cultures. The collected songs and stories will eventually lead to a musical performance, where children and adults will work together with Wijnand Stomp and musicians.
