This year, BASF's cultural program once again offers four top-class concerts by national and international artists as part of the Enjoy Jazz Festival! In the field of tension between tradition and modernity, magically playful improvisations meet musical dedication and joy of playing par excellence! At the Enjoy Jazz Festival, for example, two very different pianists, Kaja Draksler & Eve Risser, celebrate their love for their instruments with their program To Pianos at the BASF-Gesellschaftshaus. The Marcin Wasilewski Trio , one of the most important representatives of contemporary Polish jazz, will also be performing there. In the BASF Feierabendhaus, the venerable Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra swings together with shooting star Cécile McLorin Salvant and the award-winning Michael Wollny Trio brings its masterful experiments to the stage. Tickets for the events are now on sale at all known advance booking offices and online.
