Muzikale reis met Jiwa Jiwa

Take a musical journey in the Tax & Customs Museum. We connect colonial taxation, resistance and opium with music that makes this history tangible.

In the atmospheric Kuypersalon of the Tax & Customs Museum, Jiwa Jiwa takes you on an in-depth listening session. Through carefully selected pieces of music, a layered story becomes visible about the role of colonialism, oppression and autonomy, profit and loss, collaboration and resistance. Jiwa Jiwa, who explores these themes for his upcoming book Soundwriters , creates an intimate and layered experience in which sound and history come together, and weaves sound and context into a penetrating meditation on power, exploitation and cultural identity. His critical and provocative approach challenges us to look at the past and our current society with a new perspective.

Good to know:

There are two sessions divided over two days, both sessions start at 13:00 and have a maximum capacity of 35 participants. The themes of the Saturday and Sunday sessions will be announced later.
