A critic with a poisonous pen, a conductor with a traditional view of music and an orchestra of international stature that is threatened with destruction, the Utrechts Stedelijk Orkest. Those are the main players in a 100-year-old music drama. Both ruffs, critic for the Utrechts Dagblad Wilem Pijper and conductor Jan van Gilse also composed not without merit. Exactly 100 years ago, the conflict came to a head. Reason enough for the Utrecht Rietveld Ensemble to perform music by both gentlemen during one concert.
