Maria Mena stepped into the spotlight at a young age in her home country and made her international breakthrough in 2006 with Just Hold Me. In the Netherlands she has built a loyal fan base: her intimate, melodic pop songs resonated strongly here, and All This Time (Pick-Me-Up Song) reached the top ten. In 2023 she released her eighth studio album And Then Came You, a set of compelling songs about rediscovering trust in love. With our annual New Year’s tour, we deliberately create encounters beyond the classical repertoire—inviting a pop artist to push their own boundaries by performing classical works as well.
