Dutch conductor and pianist Raymond Janssen is initiator and founder of Cadenza Europaean Art Productions. Cadenza Europeaan Art Productions seeks to establish cooperation between East European musicians and performance venues in West European countries, based on the belief that Eastern Europe harbours enormous musical potential, born from a rich tradition. Partly because of the isolation of these countries, this cultural heritage has been able to survive and maintain its originality. Through Cadenza, Raymond Janssen wants to present this tradition, passed down through the ages, to West European countries.
