In its 43rd year, from October 10 - 19, the Leipziger Jazztage will be dedicated to the future - with future music.
Between today's jazz utopians and pioneers of jazz history, between tradition and innovation, between faith in progress and science fiction, between utopia and landing on the moon. Jazz has been striving forward for over 100 years: out of the present, into the future. What do the global changes of our time mean for music? We want to show that much of jazz is still music of the future - and that jazz is still a music of the future. The festival program will have presented over 10 days and in a variety of venues, concerts that listen into the future, that try to map the technological and (cosmo-)political potential of jazz for its own future, but also that of our society.
