The Music Collective Amsterdam was born as a result of the artistic needs from some musicians based in Amsterdam. Their shared vision seeks to bring freshness, versatility and an actual vision to classical music. Based in the cosmopolitan city of Amsterdam, the group also draws on the influences and the different nationalities that make up the group's members. All this is reflected on an artistic level in the programming and work philosophy.
