36th Leipzig Jazz Days
The 36th Leipzig Jazz Days came to an end last Sunday at the sold-out Neues Schauspiel Leipzig. Under frenetic cheers there was a closing party with black coffee and a special Hendrix special. Now it's time to clean up, sort and count...
Many thanks to all volunteers and official helpers, to our sponsors especially the Köstritzer Schwarzbierbrauerei and the BMW branch Leipzig.
The 37th Leipzig Jazz Days will take place from September 27 to October 6, 2013.
See you at the Telegraph live club.
The 36th Leipzig Jazz Days took place from September 21 to 30. They involved again this year two important names: Gil Evans, the father of cool jazz and Jimi Hendrix, with his most famous band Experience. The festival showed the great influence their music still has today, especially how their music has been transformed by today's artists.
