Born in the Summer of 2023 in Amsterdam!! Phantom Concerts is a life of concerts.
Immersive concerts of live classical chamber music in combination with visual and other attractions in authentic, unusual settings in the beloved city.
Phantom Concerts pushes the boundaries of classical entertainment in particular and lifestyle in general, including socially relevant themes, to new levels.
For you to see, hear and feel something truly special. In settings where the magic happens. To leave you amazed and awestruck.
For some, a Phantom is some weary soul coming back from the dead to haunt the living. A shadow, or maybe a ghost. Something to make disappear by turning on a light. Phantoms can be everywhere and nowhere.
In the Bible, a Phantom merely means “a shadowing forth, a sketch, an outline.” It gives the impression of a mere shape. However, more interesting, it means “whatever makes a man remarkable or procures respect.”
For us, Phantom refers to a spirit, that is the vital principle or animating force within all living things. Often overlapping with the concepts of soul and mind and having a connection to breathing. Spirit and spirituality play important roles in everything that lives.
Phantom also means among others appearance, image, and apparition, meaning “I make visible”. We appear in less expected settings, in less expected ways to enlighten the spirit, soul and mind of the living. To make classical music and these settings visible.
Our logo underlines our essence of the Phantom. A spirit that can come and go. A very transparent sketch, a very fine but illusionistic outline. With an invisible or barely visible presence. However, with a strong impact on the experience: “What you get is far more than what you see”.
As a mask, this logo is a symbol often connected to the concept of the Phantom. But showing positive emotions: love, joy and tenderness.
But also underlining that people see life / behave differently because of the mask they have on.
Our motto is: From Eyes Wide Shut, to Eyes Wider Open!!
