Lombok Netherlands

This musical sketch for voice and piano, titled Lombok Netherlands, was published to support the National Fund Lombok Netherlands. It commemorates the Dutch military expedition to Lombok, which took place from August 24 to 26, 1894. The piece reflects themes of war and colonialism and was used to rally public sentiment and funding for the cause. The poem was written by D.H. Zijlstra, with music and translation by F.R. Fontein Tuinhout, and published by G.H. van Eck and Oscar Brandstetter.
