In 2006 To Be Sung toured with her project ‘Amsterdam, de Wereld’, for which they invited seven composers with a physical connection to the metropolis that is Amsterdam.
With their divers backgrounds (classical/ jazz/ improvisation and world music) they composed new pieces, that, just like the city herself, are infused with influences from cultures far-away and closer to home, bringing a wonderfully eclectic mix of musical styles.
This diverse program is recorded on CD (label: Karnatic Lab Records)
