The Bologna Jazz Festival, now in its sixth year, will be taking place next month. This will be another exciting event for the city’s inhabitants who take pride in their city’s rich cultural diversity; the city’s history and international university draws people from all around the world. The Jazz Festival neatly compliments the city’s cultural mix; Bologna will take Jazz away from its traditional American scene and bring it to the heart of one of the world’s oldest medieval cities. What a great infusion between the new and the old!
The festival attracts a large number of big international Jazz artists every year that perform at the Cantina Bentivoglio in Bologna and also at the Tower Jazz Club in Ferrara. This will prove to be an exciting time to be in Bologna or Ferrara to join the cities in celebrating their cultural diversity and the development of European Jazz.
Tickets are on sale now. More information can be found at http://www.festivaljazzbologna.it/home.html.
And don’t forget to watch the short film, My Main Man, about the history of the Bologna Jazz Festival that takes you on a tour of the rich history of the festival and its cultural importance. http://www.festivaljazzbologna.it/storia/film.html
