I want to get up, I want to applaud! A very touching voice, and the whole is beautiful!

Simple yet beautiful! Great vocal and guitar play... I suppose it's a quite hard to play if fingers are freezing.

Truly moving and beautiful. Thank you Francine and Wim!

wonderful, so deep and peaceful. You are perfect together ! More recordings from you both planned ?

I was asked to accompany the great soprano Francine van der Heijden who sang this hymn at the official opening of the new bridge " the Crossing" in Nijmegen on 23 November 2013. I made an arrangement for the guitar part inspired by and based on A. Copland's version of At The River.
This piece we played and sang live accompanied a clip from the film " A Bridge to far " crossing the river Waal (by Nijmegen) which was watched by 10.000 people before they could cross the bridge for the first time. It was cold ! Last week we made this recording and we hope you enjoy it, 
 Wim and Francine.

Market Garden, The Crossing, Nijmegen: At The River, Robert Lowry: F v d Heijden, W v Stiphout.

Hi, I'm Wim van Stiphout. I live and work in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. I teach, and played the guitar/lute for more then 40 years. I have a classical background, but I like to experiment a lot ! So, I hope you enjoy the music,
Wim.

TIMES IN PRESENCE.
It's a cooperation with:

Johannes Heinen (Keyboards) .





A few months after we met first in 1996 , we started recording our absolutely free improvised music-sessions. There was no concept, subject or any arrangement. When we listened to these recordings again years later, we were surprised at its stunning qualities. The intimate character of the sessions, the intensity of the musical presence of mind and the audible open and animate interexchange of thoughts and feelings made them sound like fascinating and fully developed compositions, which we want to share with you on soundcloud. The result is a document of a long lasting musical friendship, played live, without dubs, improvisation pure : TIMES IN PRESENCE
