Xabia Jazz 2012

Xabia Jazz 2012

Every summer the music arrives to town with the Xàbia Jazz festival, a must for lovers of Jazz music that gather in the Costa Blanca North for enjoying an event that gains both fans and quality year after year. From 4 to 6 August we will enjoy three days of superb performances starting at 22:30 h. at Constitution Sq. of Xàbia, featuring Omer Avital, Richard Galliano and Andrea Motis & Joan Chamorro Group, as we can see in the program below:

4 August Omer Avita concert.

Considered by Los Angeles Times as “a pioneer in combining jazz with multiple elements of world music”, Avita is a composer, bass virtuoso, lute player and an active force in the world music scene for over a decade.

5 August Richard Galliano concert

Galliano is an exceptionally versatile musician, able to make his mark in all kinds of musical contexts, from solo appearances to play with a band as big as the Brussels Jazz Orchestra in 2008. His exceptional skills as a solo artist are now widely recognized, and continues to explore a wide range of music without losing the classic quality that found in the ballads like “Día de Amor”, recorded with Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Charlie Haden and Cinelu Mino, or the French touch that links Billie Holiday and Edith Piaf, with trumpeter Wynton Marsalis.

6 August Andrea Motis & Joan Chamorro Group

Andrea Motis is a young saxophonist, trumpeter and jazz singer which plays along Joan Chamorro (her professor) who also is the director of the Sant Andreu Jazz Band.

The three days pass price is € 30 for seniors and people 26 years old and 40 € for general admission.

The admission price per concert is 12 € for seniors and people 26 years old and 15 € for the general public.
