The jury prize in the Grachtenfestival Conservatorium Concours 2014 goes to the accordionist Vincent van Amsterdam, a student at Tilburg’s Fontys arts college. The thrilling final took place in May in the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. Jury chair Otto Tausk said, "Experiencing for yourself the power of the music but also successfully conveying it to the audience is very important. We saw this today with Vincent van Amsterdam, and this makes him the absolute winner.” To hear this amazing musician, you’ll have to descend deep into the tunnels of the Noord/Zuidlijn, the metro line under construction. The site is usually off limits to the public but is being opened specially for Grachtenfestival Amsterdam.
