The yearly festival for adventurous music Rewire in Den Haag is taking place at the end of this month, from Friday 31st March to Sunday 2nd April. Rewire presents a broad programme with the focus on contemporary electronic music, neoclassical music, new jazz, experimental pop, sound art and multi disciplinary cooperations. The Concertzender is proud to be their mediapartner this year.Rewire logo
