Summer jazz is celebrated with brass in the streets

To mark the official opening day of Aarhus Jazz Festival's Sommerjazz 2020, jazzy tones will be heard throughout the city street as the festive Summer Jazz Brass Band goes on a parade.

The repertoire consists of New Orleans classics such as Funky Liza, Bourbon Street Parade, When My Dreamboat Comes Home, and many more.

The street parade starts at Havnepladsen and continues to Dokk1, along the river to Immervad, up through Frederiksgade, past the Town Hall Square and Ridehuset, and ends at Musikhuset Aarhus.

In recent years, a new generation of New Orleans fan musicians has emerged in Aarhus. A group of them - young and old musicians, and those who have not decided what they are yet, but love New Orleans music and the syncopated rhythms - make up this street parade led by trumpeter Scott Westh.

The instrumentation is the classic set-up with two trumpets, two trombones, a sousaphone, and a battery, consisting of a small and large drum.
