In 2025, we celebrate the 80th anniversary of one of the world's most important new music festivals, Gaudeamus, with The Big Loud Thing. Since 1945, the Gaudeamus Foundation, with the annual festival as one of its main pillars, has been committed to the future of composers, creators and music pioneers.

Programme

Afterthoughts Aart Strootman
Psalm 63  Wiek Hijmans
Thin Air Calliope Tsoupaki 
Serenade II & III Peter Adriaansz

In 2025, The Big Loud Thing will delve into a rich and exceptionally varied repertoire ranging from early winners of the Gaudeamus Prize such as Pauline Oliveros (winner in 1962) and Louis Andriessen (winner in 1959) to recent highlights by Michel van der Aa (winner in 1999) and Anna Korsun (winner in 2014). In this edition, an electric guitar quartet will perform works by Aart Strootman (winner in 2017) alongside works by former jury members Calliope Tsoupaki and Peter Adriaansz.
