Do You Remember? – Beautiful Songs from Back Then
Does this sound familiar?....The first few notes of a song, and suddenly it all comes back to you.
That song from back in the day. From the radio, at home, at school, at a party, or maybe even from your first love.

Especially suited for seniors who still remember these songs from their own youth.
Hans the Singer presents a special program full of Dutch ballads and sing-alongs from the ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s.

Songs that touch the heart, move the soul, and above all: bring memories to life.
From Rob de Nijs, Johnny Jordaan, Wim Sonneveld, Louis Davids, Dorus and Willy Alberti to The Ramblers, the Selveras, Eddie Christiani, Max van Praag, and even the timeless sounds of Vera Lynn—they all feature in an atmospheric and familiar program.

Hans takes great pleasure in performing at nursing homes, care hotels, and care centers.
But he also performs at senior citizens’ afternoons, weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and family and neighborhood parties.
His performances are also ideal for events organized by De Zonnebloem or the Alzheimer Café.
Of course, singing along is always welcome—in fact, encouraged.

A selection from the repertoire:
“Het Dorp” – “Kleine Greetje uit de Polder” – “Daar bij de Waterkant” – “Geef mij maar Amsterdam” – “Aan de Amsterdamse grachten” – “Ik stuur je ’n boeketje rode rozen” – “Het kleine café aan de haven” – “Ik hou van Holland” – “Poen, poen, poen…” and much more.
