Griffioen

My Baby - Acoustic.Blues.Club

Rousing rhythms, hypnotic harmonies, enchanting grooves, soulful blues and striking vocals: the Dutch/New Zealand trio MY BABY is a virtuoso live band where every live show is a journey through fascinating musical worlds, from blues to dance where sensitive hymns can evolve into intensely danceable jams. This stage sensation performs all over the world, from Pinkpop to Glastonbury. After an ode to their uncle Maarten van Roozendaal, the theatre stage tasted like more. They are in the Griffioen theatre. Please note: The end time mentioned is an indication and may differ on the evening itself.

Close-up: the French horn takes centre stage

The French horn is one of the most beautiful instruments in the orchestra. Hornist José Sogorb Jover and colleagues from the Concertgebouw Orchestra will put the horn in the spotlight, in music from Beethoven to Vaughan Williams. This concert will be held at the Recital Hall at the Royal Concertgebouw.

Apollon Musagète Quartett plays Dvořák

Poland’s Apollon Musagète Quartett delights in playing music by Polish composers. Tonight is a generous dose of home-grown music: Szymanowski’s First andPenderecki’s Third String Quartets, alongside Dvořák’s Ninth String Quartet, op. 34 at the Recital Hall in the Royal Concertgebouw.

Brass Rave Unit

Brass Rave Unit is celebrating its 10th anniversary and is launching a grand new live show in our Main Hall on December 17th. After a sold-out show in Tolhuistuin for the release of the album 'It Burns the Midnight Oil' at the end of 2023, the trio of Ko, Bo and Dirk is celebrating a decade of shows with new work.

Clean Pete's Christmas Show

This year again, on Sunday 22 December, sisters Loes and Renée Wijnhoven aka Clean Pete will bring their deep love for Christmas and Christmas music for a surprising show in Paradiso.

Orange Skyline

The music of the four-piece Orange Skyline sounds more British than British, but make no mistake: this four-piece indie pop band comes from Groningen. Their story reads like a boy's book: the band was formed during a long car ride from Amsterdam to Groningen, after the last Oasis concert in our country.
