The family Pondman is an ensemble that exists out of five talented children out of one family in Holland. In the lives of Lili, Liza, Lonne, Walther and Alain, music plays a very important role. Their Father, Fransiscus Pondman was a blessed opera-singer and is coaching them since their early years in the musical profession.

The Children are having musiclessons at the conservatory en de musicschool in Zwolle, Netherlands, as at the "Zwolse vioolacademie, of Adriaan Stoet. Furthermore, they get lessons in singing from their Father. Their musical development is going as quick as lighting. Several times they took part in National Musiccompetitions, like for instance Jordens Viooldagen en the"Prinses Christina Concours", invariably with execelent judgement.

Since their early childhood, they also perform frequently in public together. Initially only instrumental, but more often also with vocal elements. This summer they gave, with a big succes, a sixsome concerts in the capital of the music: Vienna. Their performance during the "Windesheimconcert 2007"was undoubtedly an important step on the way to the bigger Podia. The program contaied both instrumental and vocal performances.
