Metropole Orkest & Fresku: Hand op mijn hart

Dutch rapper of Caribbean descent Fresku and the Metropole Orkest come to Nieuwe Luxor with Hand op mijn hart, a new collaboration that brings hip-hop and orchestral music together. The project includes a joint EP and a tour through the Netherlands, with Fresku’s storytelling lifted into a richer musical setting.

The Metropole Orkest brings a broad foundation in pop, soul, jazz and levenslied, giving Fresku’s songs extra depth without losing their directness. After their successful live sessions with 101Barz, this full concert programme presents some of Fresku’s biggest and most loved tracks in orchestral form.

In 2026, the project continues with a joint EP featuring new music as well as reworked versions of existing Fresku songs. Hand op mijn hart also follows the success of Fresku’s acclaimed album Leren leven, for which he received an Edison in 2025.

Expect a personal and musical evening where sharp lyrics, warm arrangements and emotional honesty meet on a big stage.
