November 2 at 10pm
BIMHUIS · Amsterdam-Oost • $$
Murakami's strange universe, set to music. Four musicians conjure talking cats, fish rains, and a boy named Crow through yearning cello, piano, percussion, and spoken word in Bimhuis's waterfront hall.
November 7 at 12pm (Next weekend)
Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ · Amsterdam-Oost
Cellists Astrig Siranossian and Ildikó Szabó trace musical threads between Armenia and Hungary in this semi-theatrical lunchtime concert, blending old and new compositions with the Netherlands Wind Ensemble's inventive arrangements.
Nov. 20 & Nov. 21 at 8:30pm
Theater Bellevue · Amsterdam-Centrum
Sword-fighting opera diva Julie d'Aubigny crashes the 1680s court ball in this campy baroque-pop musical. Collectief Aqueerius turns Versailles into a new-wave queer rave where gender norms dissolve and the bisexual energy sparkles.
November 25 at 9:30am
Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ · Amsterdam-Oost
A gentle tumble into sound for the tiniest listeners. Three musicians turn rolling, bouncing, and toppling into live percussion, trumpet, and clarinet in a soft, safe space made for babies and their grown-ups.
Nov. 27 & Nov. 28 at 8:30pm
Theater Bellevue · Amsterdam-Centrum
A 19-year-old searches for hope in the ruins of post-war Europe through a bold, musical monologue based on true stories. Timely questions about how we move forward after crisis make this fairytale-like journey feel undeniably current.
Dec. 1 & Dec. 2 at 8pm
Theater Bellevue · Amsterdam-Centrum
Flip Noorman's theatrical concert turns primatology into a swinging, subversive stage show. Expect songs, science, and a bold feminist argument that humans might learn more from bonobos than chimps.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
