The musicians will share with you the timeless notes of the genre’s greatest artists, leaving plenty of room for improvisation and the magic of the moment.
Jazz, its history and the show
Born of a cultural and musical mix, known for its syncopated rhythms and the importance of improvisation, jazz quickly became a major genre, inspiring other musical trends in its turn. With its emphasis on spontaneity, each jazz performance leaves room for an infinite number of possibilities and as many written stories.
Now it’s your turn to witness this at We call it Jazz, where each experienced musician shares their love of this living music. The timeless classics of Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra and many others will make you (re)fall in love with jazz.
The show will be opening soon, but given the success of recent editions , we’d advise you not to wait too long to get your tickets. But We call it doesn’t just take you to Louisiana, it also takes you to Argentina with a Tango show, to Andalusia through Flamenco, or lets you experience the magic of Ballet.
