Rosa Spruit
What does it mean to stand together?
In her new performance 'We Tegen De Wereld', the young singer-songwriter Rosa Spruit explores the power and fragility of being together. What started as a statement about broken love “it was us against the world, not us against each other”, turns into a search for the boundaries of love, loss and resistance.
The title sounds like a battle cry and that is no coincidence. While the world is burning with polarization and unrest, Rosa Spruit seeks out the tension between intimate connection and social criticism in her Dutch-language pop songs. She sings with an open mind, in image-rich lyrics that touch and confront.
Assisted by multi-instrumentalists Eli Goffa and Dennis Jansen, a dynamic musical palette unfolds: from small and fragile to grand and compelling. Together they form a powerful whole that touches the audience with tender ballads, astute observations and compelling arrangements.
'We Tegen De Wereld' is a performance for everyone who wants to be touched by music that not only sings about love, but also senses the spirit of the times.
