Philippe Jaroussky live in Amsterdam

Experience Philippe Jaroussky live on November 10th

Philippe Jaroussky will perform at Muziekgebouw Amsterdam on November 10, 2026. Jaroussky is a French classical countertenor renowned for his interpretations of Baroque and Classical repertoire, particularly the works of composers like Handel, Vivaldi, and Gluck. His vocal style is characterized by a pure tone, agile technique, and expressive phrasing, often bringing a dramatic intensity to roles traditionally sung by women in Baroque opera. He frequently collaborates with leading period instrument ensembles, emphasizing historically informed performance practice.

Muziekgebouw Amsterdam opened in 2005 and is dedicated to contemporary and new music, though it also hosts performances spanning various genres. Designed by architect Wilhelm Holzbauer, the building’s primary concert hall, the Grote Zaal, is celebrated for its acoustics and flexible design allowing for diverse stage configurations. It's situated within the Amsterdam International Music Centre alongside the Concertgebouw – a venue focused on orchestral music – creating a hub for musical activity. The Muziekgebouw aims to provide a platform for both established and emerging artists pushing the boundaries of musical expression and fosters experimentation with sound and technology. It is owned by the City of Amsterdam.
