Remarks: Commissioned by the Dutch Performing Arts Fund. The music was inspired by the post 9 -11 trauma and the role of religion in the history of mankind and what people do in the name of a god. Speech grooves from the streets of New York are the leitmotif for Jesus is coming: A violent street evangelist on Times Square and a small Salvation Army choir nearby. And the innocent sound of children’s voices from neighbouring kids in Doorn, the Netherlands: 18 months old Welmoed and 2 year old Amber.
