Utrecht has a bit of everything, including music events covering a variety of styles and interests, from jazz to death metal. For example, the Utrecht Jazz Festival is taking place this week, March 9-13, at various locations around the city, including SJU, RASA, and the Vredenburg Music Center. The theme of the event is Jazz With a Bite. Each day will see a variety of jazz musicians exploring some of the edgier sides of jazz and braving the world of improv. The events range in price from free to €18, with the Saturday performance by the Jan Garbarek Group going for €29.50. The full festival line-up and ticket information can be found on the website.

On the other hand if death metal is more your thing, there's the Suffocation concert at Tivoli on Friday, March 12. The doors open at 17:00 and the show starts at 18:00. Included in the line-up, along with the band Suffocation, are Annotations of an Autopsy, Nervecell, Fleshgod Apocalypse, and Burning the Masses.
