On 26-27 september 2017 Haarlem Opera and Andriessen/De Klerk Foundation realized the very first scenic performance of Hendrik Andriessens television opera The Mirror from Venice. A comedy revolving around composer Dirk Sweelinck who wants to teach a lesson to castle lord P.C. Hooft and his gathering at Muiden Castle, including Hooft's wife. All this because Sweelinck (the son of) is irritated that they never took him serious until he suddenly became famous in Italy.
