About this concert
From the simple act of biting into a juicy apple to the complexity of an orgasm: the search for pleasure is a universal human drive. This concept has many facets, also from a female point of view. Traditionally, the female body was often an object for the pleasure of others. Today, thankfully, women can give expression to their own desires. How do contemporary women deal with the complexity of this experience?  Bittersweet fruit is a performance by the duo Sine Sole Sileo, formed by the Spanish recorder player and vocalist Irene Sorozábal Moreno and the Cretan harpsichordist Katerina Orfanoudaki, with musicians from the Concertgebouworkest. Together they explore the concept of pleasure through both early baroque music and their own compositions and improvisations.

Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra Biography
Based in Amsterdam, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra is regarded as one of the very best orchestras in the world. Such composers as Richard Strauss, Gustav Mahler and Igor Stravinsky all conducted the orchestra on more than one occasion and to this day, it continues to foster long-term relationships with contemporary composers. 
There have been seven chief conductors to date: Willem Kes, Willem Mengelberg, Eduard van Beinum, Bernard Haitink, Riccardo Chailly, Mariss Jansons and Daniele Gatti. In June 2022 it was announced that Klaus Mäkelä is joining the orchestra as artistic partner with effect from the 2022-23 season, and will be chief conductor from 2027.
In addition to some eighty concerts performed in Amsterdam, the Concertgebouw Orchestra gives forty concerts at other major concert halls throughout the world. The orchestra expands its reach through videos, streaming, and radio and television broadcasts. It also releases CD and DVD recordings on its Concertgebouworkest Live label.
The orchestra’s extensive educational activities include the successful Academy of the Concertgebouw Orchestra and the unique summer project for talented young people from all over Europe, Concertgebouworkest Young.
The Concertgebouw Orchestra is co-funded by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science, the Municipality of Amsterdam, sponsors, funds and numerous donors all over the world. The largest portion of its income is generated by proceeds from the concerts it gives in and outside the Netherlands.
