On April 4th, Live at Our Place will present a blend of minimal, electronic and acoustic music by pianist Marko Ivic, who will be playing songs from his upcoming album, “When I entered, there was a room”, as well as improvisations. For the second act, T R O M P O & Remi Alexander invite you to submerge yourself in the minimal, dreamy sounds of violin, double bass, flute, synthesisers and electronics from their new collaboration, “Memories”.

Live at our Place is a series of monthly intimate concerts by Treehouse NDSM’s musicians-in-residence. Our industrial Pavilion building will be turned into the musicians’ own living room, tuned each time to their own particular style and vibe. We invite you to our place, grab a drink, sit on the couch (or dance!), and enjoy the tunes that our talented community is working on during their stay at Treehouse NDSM.
