Slagwerk Den Haag

Biography:

We aim to amaze and enrich' Slagwerk Den Haag is fascinated by everything concerned with sound, pulse and materials that produce sound. We are podium artists and highly versatile creators and co-creators. As performers, we play in every setting imaginable, on our traditional arsenal of instruments, and on porcelain, equine jaws, glass or 3D-printed instruments. We work alongside trendsetting artists and makers. Our projects reflect the very latest developments and we do everything in our power to help in the quest for the undiscovered.
