Cabaret expert Daan Bartels has mapped out walking routes that present more than sixty locations that were significant in Liesbeth List's life and shares the stories behind them.

‘La List’ had an international grandeur, but felt most at home in Amsterdam. It was the city where she lived her entire adult life, where she developed as a singer and actress, and where her meeting with Ramses Shaffy marked the beginning of a decades-long, intense friendship and collaboration. But before Liesbeth moved to Amsterdam, where her star would soar to unprecedented heights, she grew up as a shy girl with undiscovered talents on Vlieland and in Harlingen.

For many years, Daan Bartels organized Liesbeth List walks in Amsterdam, and he also created routes on Vlieland and Harlingen. With this guide in hand, you can now discover Liesbeth List's life story for yourself. The background stories for each location in ‘The Life of Liesbeth List’ bring her story to life.

Daan Bartels also created a Spotify playlist especially for this edition, featuring music that enhances the book's locations.
