Dedicated to our Mothers and to the Mothers of all the Children in the World.
These recordings include songs that were performed during the Tulips 2005 ..... 60th Anniversary tour marking the 60th Anniversary of the gift of 100.000 tulip bulbs to Canadians by the Dutch Royal Family. This Gift of Tulips was made as a symbolic thank you to Canadian for providing safe haven for members of the Dutch Royal Family in Ottawa and the important and strategic role the Canadian Army played in the liberation of the Netherlands.
The concerts were a tribute to the Canadian WWII Veterans. During the tour, the Mayor of every city visited by the Stage Bus was offered, in a pre-concert ceremony, a Tulip Friendship Garden. To honour those who contributed to the liberation of the Netherlands, local veterans were invited to receive this very special garden along with the civic representatives.
Her Royal Highness Princess Margriet of the Netherlands and her husband
Pieter van Vollenhoven arrived in Ottawa on the 12th of May, 2005, for
the official opening of the Canadian Tulip Festival and on May 13th
Princess Margriet officially launched Tulips 2005 - 60th
Anniversary Friendship Tour. During this occasion Luluk Purwanto and the
Helsdingen Trio performed a song entitled: Princess Song. This song was
composed by Marcello Pellitteri for the Princess of the Netherlands.
All artwork and scribbles by Luluk.
