3 x International Big Band Battle ((DK/NL/LV))

19:30

Danish Youth Jazz Orchestra (DK) – John Riddell (cond), Codarts Young Talent Big Band (NL) – Daan Bogers (cond), Melngailskolas Big Band (LV) – Janis Ivuskans (cond)

International big band battle and cross-cultural encounter

Experience the three exuberant youth big bands Danish Youth Jazz Orchestra (DK), Codarts Young Talent Big Band (NL), and Melngailskolas Big Band (LV) in a proper 'Big Band Battle'.

Following in the footsteps of Count Basie and Duke Ellington in the 30s and 40s, the three big bands will compete musically.

However, this Big Band Battle is less competition and more international big band encounter. The three bands all partake in this year's Scandinavian Big Band Camp: a jazz camp that hosts workshops, classes and talent development programmes for young aspiring jazz musicians.

Experience the three bands in concert throughout the week at Ridehuset.
