Paradox Jazz Orchestra live in Groningen

Experience Paradox Jazz Orchestra live on November 30th

Paradox Jazz Orchestra will perform at Spot Groningen on November 30, 2026. The ensemble is a contemporary big band based in the Netherlands, known for its adventurous and often unconventional approach to jazz composition and improvisation. Their music frequently incorporates elements of modern classical, electronic music, and rock, moving beyond traditional big band arrangements. They are recognized for complex harmonies, dynamic arrangements, and a focus on original compositions by members of the orchestra.

Spot Groningen is a prominent music venue situated within the former Der Aa-kerk, a historical church building dating back to the 13th century. Originally a place of worship, the building underwent significant renovation in the late 20th century to transform it into a cultural center. It officially opened as Spot in 2008 and has since become known for its exceptional acoustics and intimate atmosphere. The venue hosts a diverse range of performances including jazz, classical, world music, and pop concerts. Its unique setting – retaining many original architectural features of the church – contributes significantly to its appeal as a performance space. The venue’s capacity is approximately 500 standing or 350 seated.
