Jazz campus en Clunisois, festival et stage de jazz

For over 40 years, Jazz Campus has been playing its part in the proliferation of summer festivals, with a focus on sharing. With those who play the music, through courses (or workshops) run by top-notch musicians, serving local and national amateur players as well as up-and-coming professionals.
But it's also, and above all, about sharing with a wide audience - local and national - who can enjoy a programme that gives pride of place to the most innovative, mischievous or impertinent, but in any case musically indisputable, work in the vast field of jazz music today.
Over the course of a week, a dozen concerts in heritage venues around Cluny will showcase the irresistible youth of an art form that is now a hundred years old... but which is far from having said its last word.

The jazz course, which runs throughout the festival, offers young instrumentalists, amateur musicians and future professionals an opening onto ensemble playing: orchestra class, collective improvisation and creation, group playing, exploration of a repertoire, fanfare. This course does not offer instrumental training; it is above all an invitation to make music together, through a variety of approaches. This 'recipe' (which is not a recipe) is based on the quality of the participants, who for forty years have been chosen from among the musicians who make up today's jazz and improvised music scene in France and Europe.
Two camps for young people are also offered in partnership with the Marelle leisure centre and the Club jeunes en clunisois: a camp for 6-10 year olds led by Benoît Garnica and a camp for 11-16 year olds led by Cyril Hernandez.

In the morning, a creative fanfare, free and open to all, brings everyone together.
