In the series CvA Changemakers inspiring artists, musicians and innovators are being interviewed who appeal to the imagination in terms of the sweet spot of artistry and social relevance. In May Artist in Residence Gillian Moore interviewed Orlando Ceder, who will take over as Artist in Residence in the next academic year.

Gillian and Orlando talked about his artistic and educational vision, and how his residency can contribute to new perspectives on music education inside and outside the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Orlando is a singer, arranger, musical entrepreneur, and educator based in Amsterdam Zuidoost. During his residency, he will focus on bridging cultural worlds through music.
