A Tribute on April 19, 2026
On Sunday, April 19, 2026, a special tribute concert will take place during the International Flute Days at Adams in Ittervoort. Former students of Gaby will come from far and wide to celebrate her versatility with Baroque, Romantic, and contemporary repertoire, orchestral and chamber music. It promises to be a heartfelt musical homage to someone for whom music and life are inseparably intertwined.
