Christmas JazzJam Concert at the University

The Faculty of Design and Art of the Free University of Bozen- Bolzano and the Südtirol Jazzfestival Alto Adige are strengthening their ties: for the forthcoming 30th anniversary of the Jazzfestival, a group of students under Professor Antonino Benincasa is working on designs for a new image. These designs will be exhibited on Wednesday, 21 December with a pre-Christmas JazzJam concert at the University. The event begins at 5.30 p.m. and is open to the public. The Jazz Design 2011 was designed by one of the students from the Faculty of Design and Art. Now, under Professor Antonino Benincasa, a number of students are working on proposals for the 30th anniversary festival, which will be entertaining South Tyrol from 29 June to 8 July 2011 with exotic, colourful and in some cases unusual tones. Jazz president Klaus Widmann is looking forward to the presentations by Professor Benincasa and his students: so, from 5.30 p.m. on 21 December, a jazzy pre-Christmas event – JazzJam – will be taking place in the foyer of the university library to offer a jazz accompaniment to the students’ work. The music will also be produced by young local artists: three Bozen - Bolzano musicians, Matteo Cuzzolin, Marco Stagni and Andrea Polato, have after several months in Berlin developed their project “Fatish”. They are touring at home and abroad and also playing on the big stages at the Jazzfestival 2011, including in the Waltherplatz. JazzJam on Wednesday, 21 December: the concert featuring the design presentation begins at 5.30 p.m. in the foyer of the university library (Free University of Bozen - Bolzano, Universitätsplatz 1, first floor) and is open to all those interested.

30th Jazz Festival from 29 June to 8 July 2012

Next year the Südtirol Jazzfestival Alto Adige turns 30 – and this special birthday must be duly celebrated! Now the date for the anniversary edition 2012 was set: from Friday, 29th of June to Sunday, 8th of July South Tyrol will once again be host to the international jazz scene, with many crazy, colourful and, first and foremost, fresh sounds. During this year’s 29th edition the festival organisers have already brought numerous young artists and news of jazz stages in New York, Paris, Germany and Scandinavia to South Tyrol and thus created a diversified programme which was highly appreciated by both the lay and expert audience. You can also look back on the many unforgettable moments of the festival 2011: on this site you will find especially produced videoclips that give an idea of what the 29th edition was like. So don’t forget to save the date of the next Jazz Festival in South Tyrol: 29th June to 8th July. We are looking forward to celebrating our 30th birthday with you!

The best videos to remember

It’s been one month that the Südtirol Jazzfestival Alto Adige 2011 is over. Now we present the videos with the best video clips and sounds of ten days of jazz 2011. Matthias Stoll, a filmmaker from Cologne, has followed us at this year’s festival and taken wonderful pictures. Take a look at dancing cows, alpine pastures in bloom, colourful diversity – and, last but not least – listen to a lot of beautiful music. The first video shows scenes from the early-morning theremin concert with Pamelia Kurstin at the Kränzelhof in Tscherms/Cermes. In the coming days and weeks we will present a number of other highlights of the festival.
