Talent development and jazz networking for young big band members across borders.
In 2017, Ridehuset Swings is not only a focal point for Aarhus Jazz Festival but the centre for a special big band event.
Aarhus Jazz Orchestra host an international symposium that gathers youth big bands from The Netherlands, Finland, and Denmark for a jazz camp under the name Global Jazz Explorer Youth Camp.
The participating big bands are:
Melngailskolas Big Band from Finland.
Codarts Young Talent Big from The Netherlands.
Delft Junior Bigband from The Netherlands.
Jysk Talent Big Band from Denmark.
All in all, the bands count nearly 80 Danish and international young jazz musicians, who get together and perform at Aarhus Jazz Festival.
The musicians develop their talents and expand their jazz networks internationally across borders by attending master classes. The symposium culminates on Saturday with a huge big band concert.
The concert adheres to the theme of Ridehuset Swings for Aarhus Jazz Festival 2017 – South African Big Band Nights – with music inspired by South African musical tradition, fused with familiar big band jazz.
