Base Line – Music Meets Art

Anniversary

A feast for the eyes and ears! In the spring of 2026, the Kunstmuseum Den Haag will be making some noise. To celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Royal Conservatoire, the exhibition Base Line - Music Meets Art brings together the worlds of sound and vision. After a gap of many years, the Kunstmuseum is once again displaying – and playing – part of its remarkable collection of musical instruments. Some very special objects, such as a crystal flute, will be heard once again.

Programme

Japanese prints depicting musicians, forgotten women composers back in the spotlight, musical notes you can smell and feel, visual artists showing how their work is influenced by music: in a rich public programme, musicians and communities from The Hague contribute to events that transcend national borders and time periods.
