​
‘Door alles heen ‘veren wij op liefde’. De liefde verbindt en verscheurt harten. Maar zij zal steeds weer overwinnen en blijft eeuwig onze bron’.
Ontwapenende, eigenzinnige, vrolijke en bloedmooie liedjes en ervaringen door pianist en theatermaker Guus Westdorp. Na een rijke carriere in muziek en theater keert Guus nu terug naar de bron ‘Waar het allemaal begon’. Hij blikt terug naar waar hij eens vooruit zag. Hij zingt naast eigen werk ook van mensen, die hem inspireren en met wie hij heeft samengewerkt, o.a. Toon Hermans, Ramses Shaffy, Liesbeth List, Reinhard Mey, Jacques Brel.
Guus is muziek en liedjes. En er is geen ontkomen aan de liefde!

RAMSES, THE SONGS
Whenever Ramses and I saw each other again, his greeting would be: "Hello, dear boy, are you back!" We recognized each other when we sat together at the piano, when we marveled, when we both played our pranks, when we cried together and cried with laughter at the world around us. With my solo, "Ramses Shaffy - the songs," I pay a musical tribute to the work of the artist of life, Ramses Shaffy. Exuberant, understated, and filled with anecdotes, I'll transport you through fields of passionate love, but also along canals in nights filled with loneliness and longing. And then, for a moment, it's as if Shaffy were wandering through the room again...

SHAFFY AND SURROUNDINGS
This is the sequel to "Ramses, de liederen." For fifteen years, Guus had intense encounters with Ramses Shaffy. They sat together at the piano, sang, and shared stories. It wasn't just Shaffy who inspired Guus to write his own work. The special collaboration with Toon Hermans is also in his blood. And then there's Herman van Veen, Paul van Vliet and Reinhard Mey, who once introduced him to songwriting. This program is therefore an ode to the "greats of theater and their writers."
