Anton didn't have far to travel when he performed in Zevenbergen on Sunday. The small town in the municipality of Moerdijk near Fijnaart is home to the beautiful cabaret theater de Schuur, where Anton celebrated his premiere together with his live band. 

Warm songs about life

Anton knows a thing or two about crossing borders. The singer-songwriter not only lives in the Netherlands, but also in Germany. He has already given many concerts here with up to 350 visitors, mainly in the district of Soest (including Büderich, Bad Sassendorf, Bad Waldliesborn), but also in Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt. 

"Journey" 

Anton will be giving three concerts in Zevenbergen in the Netherlands during the 25/26 theater season. Tickets for the concert are already available. All dates take place in Theater de Schuur on Kerkstraat in Zevebergen NL. The concerts start at 2 pm, the auditorium opens at 1.30 pm. 

The song “zu alt?” is a philosophical question about life. It is based on a poem penned by the Dutch poet Drieck van Wissen (Poet of Vaderland). “Until now, nobody in Germany has known these texts and the songs based on them,” says Anton. 

Anton van Doornmalen has always been someone who connects. With "We are one", he has now created the perfect song to do just that. It is the anthem for the 100th anniversary of the Rijk Zwaan company. He is chairman of the supervisory board, co-owner and former director of the company. 

The concert with Anton and his live band in Zevenbergen was sold out after just a few days. The Dutch singer will perform at the Theatre de Schuur in Zevenbergen, Noord-Brabant, on Sunday, April 13. He already gave a private concert there a year ago. 

The concert starts at 2 pm, admission is half an hour earlier. 

Anton will be performing with his band on Sunday, April 13, at Theater de Schuur in Zevenbergen in North Brabant. He already gave a private concert there a year ago. Because all the visitors were so impressed by the songs, the music and the stage performance, there will now be a public concert in the afternoon at Theater de Schuur. It starts at 2 pm, admission starts at 1.30 pm. 

Many concertgoers left the PS.Halle in Einbeck on Thursday deeply moved and touched. The reason: Anton van Doornmalen and his band of professional musicians. This time, the children's choir of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Einbeck was also involved under the direction of Katorin Ulrike Hastedt.

Funny, serious and touching

A concert by Anton van Doornmalen and his band is just what the soul needs at the moment. Pure joy in music, the lightness of life, and all for a good cause. Under the title “Journey”, Anton has now played to an audience of around 300 in the PS.Speicher in a charity concert organized by KWS.

The US trade journal "Seed World" has published a portrait of Anton. In the portrait, the journal focuses on the connection between music and vegetable seeds. The text is entitled "Singing for the Seed Industry".

The new song "We are one" sound like an anthem. It was presented by singer Anton van Doornmalen to mark the 100th anniversary of Rijk Zwaan.

"For me, the whole Rijk Zwaan feeling is captured in these three minutes," says the singer, who recorded the song together with the European Pop Orchestra. You can find the song here on YouTube.

Anton played “a musical ode to cooperation in the seed sector” at the welcome party of the ISF Congress in Rotterdam.

After a day full of work, sessions and presentations, it was time for music at the ISF Congress in Rotterdam. And on stage was Anton van Doornmalen, co-owner and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Rijk Zwaan.

The performance was received with enthusiasm by his colleagues in the sector. Especially from the other family seed companies East-West Seeds, Takii Seeds and Sakata, to whom he dedicated a song. The performance was a wonderful end to an inspiring day!

Anton van Doornmalen and his band performed at the World Seed Congress in Rotterdam (28.05.2024). It was a very special performance for the Dutch singersongwriter - and not just because the concert took place on the former passenger ship SS Rotterdam. The ship is a former Holland-America Line vessel in the port of Rotterdam.

Who doesn't know the song “The Boxer” by Paul Simon? The song is part of pop music history. Anton van Doornmalen has written a new song for the well-known melody. The new song is simply called “ISF” - fitting for the World Seed Congress taking place from May 27 to 29 in Rotterdam. You can download the song here for free. Just click here.

We are just seedsmen and our story is seldom told. 

Anton van Doornmalen is here to tell exactly these stories. With a guitar, a melting voice and a lot of feelings. Vegetable seeds and music – these are the topics that drive Anton. The long player “Seed Songs” combines both things. Anton currently serves as chairman of the company's supervisory board.
