This year again, more than 90 groups have expressed their desire to participate in Jazz Migration, proof that our program meets a real need among artists. Once again this year, over 100 committed programmers have selected the four Jazz Migration #10 laureates from among 14 finalists, demonstrating that festivals and venues continue to support emerging talent. The interest that the world of jazz and improvised music shows in this program remains strong!
And this year, for the first time, with MARSAVRIL, [Na], NUBU, and SĖLĒNĘ, Jazz Migration #10 selection, comprising 15 artists, is both gender balanced (each group includes at least one woman) and finally welcomes an overseas formation. Our commitments and the work done in these two directions for several years are bearing fruit.
The four winning groups are now entering a two-year process of artistic and professional support. They will benefit from the support of a network of committed professionals. And thanks to AJC’s travel support, they will be on tour in 2025 in Europe for 20 concerts. If you wish to invite any of the bands, please contact us.
Congratulations and welcome to them!
