In 2019, Jazz Festival Ljubljana is celebrating its 60th anniversary, thus defending the title of Europe’s oldest continually running jazz festival. Between 18–22 June 2019, jazzy tunes will again echo through Cankarjev dom, Council of Europe Park, Križanke and other venues across Ljubljana.
Europe’s oldest jazz festival won the Europe Jazz Network Award for Adventurous Programming in 2018. Although over the past decade the focus has been on contemporary practices and improvisations, the festival regularly features tradition-based musical expressions, a fine example of which is the national RTV Slovenia Big Band. Special attention is devoted to exclusive projects and world- or Slovenian premieres. The festival plays a highly important role as a breeding ground for new, as yet unestablished talents – an endeavour that has recently gained prominence through concerts by workshop attendees. Seeking to foster budding young creativity, the festival has expanded its presence to include other venues, spreading beyond the stages of its producer Cankarjev dom – where John Zorn will play the Gallus Hall organ (!) this year, and his music will be performed in a concert marathon by as many as fourteen ensembles. The Križanke open-air theatre will play host to jaw-dropping American band Snarky Puppy. FESTIVAL PAS Includes all concerts, films, lectures...
