Festival JAZZ à SAINT-GERMAIN-DES-PRÉS from May 15th to May 29th 2011
french
VOCAL AMATEUR JAZZ BANDS
Jazz is for some people a passion lived through the integration into amateur bands, playing instruments or singing, reaching sometimes remarkable artistic levels and being supervised by professionals giving their all to direct these budding artists. For many years the festival has wished to open a scene to amateur practices, and we chose the vocal bands. Come and discover the vocalamateur jazz bands, selected after a call for nominations for their setting up, their melodies, and their artistic performances. Maybe will you feel like joigning them too?
