Spring as a catalyst for music
With the arrival of spring, the desire to share moments outdoors becomes more present. This station symbolizes a renaissance, and is the perfect opportunity to celebrate jazz at the Barcelona Springtime Swing festival. More than a simple musical event, it is a celebration of friendship and passion for this genre.
A Festival with Purpose
Through a non -profit initiative, this festival seeks to revitalize the classic jazz scene in Barcelona. With a careful selection of local and international artists, the aim is to connect with those who appreciate the rich history of this musical genre, often overshadowed by more commercial trends.
Relive the nostalgic jazz
Jazz purists often remember iconic moments, such as performances by legendary figures such as Duke Ellington. This nostalgia reflects not only an appreciation for the past, but also a recognition of contemporary talents that, despite not filling large rooms, add a unique brightness to the current scene.
A new generation of musicians
During the three nights of the festival, the public will have the opportunity to listen to performances by exceptional trajectories, which, thanks to their virtuosity, know how to captivate the audience and convey the essence of live jazz.
