WinterFuse

As winter comes outside, the temperature rises indoors with music that invites dancing, listening, and coming together. WinterFuse, the warmest weekend of the year, returns to our halls this December. Artists from diverse musical worlds share stories of community, roots, revolution, and freedom. Four years after her sold-out concert, Aynur returns to DE SINGEL. She is considered one of the most iconic voices in contemporary Kurdish music. For over 25 years, she has been reshaping the musical landscape by blending the deep traditions of Kurdish folk music with modern Western influences. With her powerful voice and intense storytelling, she brings the rich cultural heritage of her Kurdish and Alevi roots to life. Asmâa Hamzaoui, meanwhile, is regarded as the leading woman ambassador of Gnawa music. With her group Bnat Timbouktou, she delivers an infectious blend of spiritual desert blues. Rooted in tradition yet with a fresh pulse, the two artists explore the unifying power of music - perfectly in the spirit of WinterFuse!

The full programme will be announced in September 2026.
