Klankexpeditie Oostenwind – Foundscape Orchestra @ Wijnhaven

Historic ship De Oostenwind becomes a musical instrument during Klankexpeditie Oostenwind, an audiovisual performance by Foundscape Orchestra in Rotterdam’s historic harbours.

Sound artist Daniel Maalman and musicians Jasper Schütz and Jaap Mutter use self-built sound sculptures, mechanical devices and the metal structure of De Oostenwind itself to create a live, site-specific performance combining sound, light and maritime heritage. The performance lasts approximately 25 minutes.

The ship will be moored at Wijnhaven on Friday 2 and Saturday 3 October, before moving to Oude Haven on Friday 9 and Saturday 10 October 2026.
