2013 in the rearview mirror

Even if it still doesn't look like it outside: winter and Christmas are just around the corner - and a reminder: the year is coming to an end. So it's time to look in the 2013 rearview mirror: In the year of our 40th birthday, more people came to our events than ever before - and we were awarded the German government's Venue Program Prize.

Of course, the Jazz Days still outshone the year again, "Siggi and the Yellow Shark" attracted people in droves - and earned us some envious glances from other organizers. Unique concerts like those by Joshua Redman and Carla Bley at the Opera House or like the one at and in the Monument to the Battle of the Nations have provided unforgettable moments. But there were similarly great moments away from the festival - for the birthday concert with the Central Quartet at the Telegraph or at the same place with The Bad Plus, Klima Kalima, Shai Maestro, Werner Neumann's Addis Ababa project...
