Henry VIII - SAINT-SAËNS / 2023

Six marriages, two annulments, two beheadings and the founding of his own Church, against the authority of Rome... in his search for a suitable spouse, the notorious Tudor King of England Henry VIII shrank from nothing.

Henry van Loon: Sleutelmoment / 2016

It can go fast. One moment you are tinkering with a moped in your over-complete shed, the other moment you become chief of an Indian tribe.
