Dear jazz friends!

MORE FESTIVAL TIPS!
Here are some more tips on festival concerts and events.
Yazz Parade, fanfare from the church tower and concert – Angela Strandberg Angela Strandberg will have a very busy festival day on 2 August! At 15.00, Angela will kick off the Yazz Parade with her group Grand Parade. The Yazz Parade goes from Österportstorg via Stortorget to the square in front of Continental du Sud, where the band will continue to swing. At 19.00, she will be on stage at Solhällan, the classic dance rotunda in Löderup, with her band Mama Shakers. And at 22.00, Angela has the honour of performing the traditional fanfare from the tower of St Mary’s Church. If we can keep up with Angela, we will certainly need to wind down and round off the first festival day with Grégory Privat´s concert at Klosterkyrkan 22.30.

Concert tip – Elaria “Jazz from today, in an including way”. The 16 musicians in the Elaria Orchestra offer big band music 2.0. The band was formed five years ago by the pianist, composer and conductor Erika Hammarberg. Today’s concert title is perfect for a sunny day by the sea at Ystad Saltsjöbad: “Summer Flow”. Ystad Saltsjöbad on Thursday 3 August 13.00. Tickets: Elaria Orchestra “Summer Flow” – Ystad Sweden Jazz Festival (ystadjazz.se)

Concert tip – Sinne and MNBB As has become a tradition, the festival concludes on Sunday at Solhällan with a big band concert featuring the Monday Night Big Band. Last year’s concert with Sinne Eeg – one of the world’s best jazz vocalists – was a great success at a sold-out Solhällan. So don’t miss this year’s concert – a tribute to Thad Jones and Monica Zetterlund. Solhällan on Sunday 6 August 16.00. Tickets: Sinne Eeg & Monday Night Big Band “Thad Jones 100 years & Monica Zetterlund Tribute” – Ystad Sweden Jazz Festival (ystadjazz.se)
