The Enjoy Jazz Program 2019

Festival director Rainer Kern announced the 2019 festival program at the successful press conference on 05.07. at the Europäischer Hof! This year's artists show that the Enjoy Jazz Festival values tradition, but also promotes innovation and creativity. The festival will be opened this year by Carla Bley Trios, reunited in a quartet with Billy Drummond. The festival closes with the Greek Eleni Karaindrou and a large ensemble. The performance by Jan Bang & Ensemble Modern at Karlstorbahnhof is just one of the concerts by this year's Artist in Residence. He will be giving several concerts at the festival, for example with his group Dark Star Safari. But the anniversary program of Enjoy Jazz is also great as usual: In addition to well-known Enjoy Jazz such as the Pablo Held Trio and the award-winning Theon Cross, you can look forward to the young German electronic artist Apparat , or the internationally renowned guitarist Cory Wong, who convinces with his minimalist, twangy funkyness. Other program highlights include Dee Dee Bridgewater, Yazz Ahmed, Mark Guiliana as well as "Drumming" by Steve Reich and many other exciting guests and performances.
