Music Stages

Music Stages is the organization behind the IJ-Salon. The foundation organizes concert series, festivals, and educational projects at both traditional and innovative venues in the Netherlands and abroad. Unconventional venues are more accessible to new audiences. We challenge conventions and are pioneering in both our programming and our engagement with our audience. Stimulating productions, each with its own distinct character, demonstrate creativity and relevance. We enjoy incorporating diverse disciplines and integrating various performing arts into our programming. Surprising connections and a healthy dose of curiosity take chamber music into uncharted territory.
