LET'S TALK ABOUT JAZZ ... and golden times.
The leaves are falling, the nights are getting cooler and yet one thing is certain: this will be a golden autumn for all of us. Because if the weather doesn't cooperate after all, then at least the music will wrap our minds in comforting warmth. The fall festival season in Leipzig has begun and there are some events you definitely shouldn't miss.
First and foremost, of course, we recommend a visit to our 47th Leipziger Jazztage with the motto "Make the connection". Once again this year, you can expect a line-up of the highest order: big names in jazz meet newcomers and play at a wide variety of venues in the city: the opera house, the Schauspielhaus, churches, trendy clubs or small cultural institutions.This year's festival edition will be a celebration of artistic expression and relationship building. Across actual and perceived distances. Find out more on the following pages.
Other organizers are also getting things going in Leipzig: the DOK Festival (October 8 to 15) promises an exciting film program. The Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra will also be playing at the Kulturnhalle on October 22, drawing from a colorful spectrum of jazz, traditional musical styles from around the world, avant-garde, independent and electronica. A few days later, October can be closed with wonderful jazz concerts at the LeipJAZZIg Autumn Festival.
See you where the music plays.
