Car Ensemble of the Netherlands

The scores were built up of blocks with improvisation instructions to which the conductor had the opportunity to allow each segment a longer or shorter duration.

The cars for that occasion were operated by the local artists Marcel Hardung, Adolf Lechtenberg, Julia Lohmann, Gisela Kleinlein and Klaus Richter.

The British cinematographers Richard Heslop and Daniel Landin for that occasion were invited to direct a film, Procar[2] in cooperation with Herbert Verhey and to be used for back-drop projection.

[3] The last performance of the Car Ensemble was on 16 August 1987, at the invitation of the Boulevard of Broken Dreams, a theatre festival held that year in 's-Hertogenbosch.

Although dissolved by Verhey in the fall of 1987, he gave one final performance with the Car Ensemble ("Nederlands Auto Ensemble") in June 1990 in Hilversum (the Netherlands) on request of Han Reiziger for his TV program on classical and contemporary music, Reiziger in Muziek.
