TWENTY-FIVE years festival which TWENTY organized by our relationship to the Onze + association. Is this really a good thing to do but celebrate this double anniversary, because beyond a small circle of close friends and collaborators who lived almost directly succession of editions, it ultimately has little meaning for the majority of the public. What demand priority is to continue to be served in good music, so in quality concerts, whatever it enumerating the names over time!

And yet, somewhere we are quite proud of this stubbornness in wanting to celebrate the “real jazz”, to paraphrase the late Pope Hugues Panassié, year nearly year. After so many fine concerts with jazz greats, so let’s enthusiastic and determined to present the menu the next edition in the form of a small inventory somewhat anarchic.
