ME! The theme of the 2010 New Year\u2019s Concert organised by the NBE and the VARA broadcasting corporation was ME! It’s a theme with special resonance for the programme’s featured musicians. Iranian singer Marjan Vahdat and Congolese ensemble Staff Benda Bilili have continued to make beautiful music despite the way their environment responded to their choices. Or perhaps because of it. They are musical heroes who dare to raise their voices, and who demonstrate that making music together can indeed move mountains. They were selected from the nearly 150 entries in the NBE’s annual young composers’ contest. The young composers too, took their inspiration from this year’s theme ME! At first this year was the inclusion of young composers from the Netherlands’ overseas\u00a0territories, the Dutch Antilles. Fons Merkies, Hans Barkel, Jos van den Dungen, Anastacia M. Larmonie and Willem van Merwijk supported the young composers helping them arrange their piece for the NBE.<\/p>\n Solists<\/span> Marjan Vahdat (vocals), Staff Bandda Bilili ME!
