Bergamo Jazz Estate brings the energy and charm of great jazz to the evocative space of Lazzaretto, a symbolic place of Bergamo’s summer. A program that weaves together tradition and new voices from the international scene, offering audiences unique concerts and unforgettable atmospheres under the stars.
The festival, curated by Bergamo Jazz Festival, thus continues to weave its dialogue with the city beyond the days of March, continuing its exploration of the languages of jazz and its contaminations.
Among sounds, rhythms and improvisations, Bergamo Jazz Estate @ Lazzaretto is an opportunity to experience music in a convivial and evocative setting, capable of welcoming both longtime fans and those approaching this musical universe for the first time.
