Inspired by legendary venues like New York’s Blue Note, London’s Ronnie Scott's we introduce Amsterdam’s Contra: the place to enjoy intimate jazz concerts from your dinner table. A chef's menu is served, accompanied by our wide selection of wines. To keep the balance between the listening experience and sharing the moment, the concert consists of 3 sets of 35-40 minutes, each followed by a break to enjoy your table, your company, and the atmosphere.

This edition we welcome LIUKE ft. Sofiya Astapiuk

LIUKE is the project of Amsterdam-based guitarist, composer, and bandleader Luca Polizzi. Rooted in contemporary jazz, the ensemble balances intensity and space through lyrical melodies, cinematic textures, and open improvisation. His albums have united musicians from across Europe, Asia, and the United States. Live, LIUKE immerses audiences in a dynamic, energetic, and deeply interactive experience, where spontaneity and collective listening shape each concert into something unique. Special guest is Sofiya Astapiuk on Vocals. With the participation of Ignacio Pinto on Bass and Ricardo Ramos on Drums
