Jazz from around the World

Jazz Festival's.

If you have ever been to a Jazz Festival then you will love this blog. If you have never been to a Jazz Festival then you will learn a lot from this blog.

I think that it's time that we as a culture take back the the intelligent waves of the mind and stop the systematic bombarment of the mind with this so called music of today. Don't get me wrong I like some of the music of today as long as it is expanding the mind. Their are some great artist of today just like it has been through out history.

But it comes a time when you notice that the music is going in the wrong direction and our young are being fed this garbage in access. Not only that it tells in a society where that society is coming from.

I could go on and on about this subject ,but what I'm here for is to tell you about some great festivals and where you can find them.

There are some great Hot Spots for you to go on Vacation or just go to listen to some great music. Not only that I've been to over 200 Festivals maybe more, I have to take a look at my T-shirt collection then I would be able to tell you exactly.

Well anyway here we go:
If you are in France These are some of the Festival you can attend. France has over 200 Festivals in the Summer I don't know all of them but their are many to choose from. Here are just a few festivals in different region's you can visit.


The Vienne Festival is set in a Amphitheater which is over a 1000 years old. So you could image how that sounds. Perfect acoustics you wont find a better amphitheater then this in France. I have attended this Festival 5 times in my life and have enjoyed every moment of it.

Here is the link:http://www.jazzavienne.com The Festival starts June, 30th till July, 13th.


If you are ever in the Midi-Pyrenees Region, their is a City called Souillac and in July they have a beautiful Jazz festival there. It's the Souillac Jazz festival. Here is the link http://www.souillacenjazz.net

This City is very special. It is in the region where you will find the World Famous Foie Gras. For the people that don't know of Foie Gras,It's Goose or Duck Liver. You can have it Poch or it comes in the form of Pate. (I think the region maybe Perigord?)

It's a Culinary experience that you will enjoy! If you ever do have a chance to enjoy this dish ,please by all means order a bottle of (Sauternes) with your Foie Gras. It is a very sweet wine that will compliment your foie Gras. This is a region for all these culinary extravagant pleasures. Oh France, oh La La!

The NICE JAZZ FEST, one of three major jazz events in Europe with Montreux and The Hague, draws more than 45,000 spectators every summer with its 500 plus musicians, 8 days, 75 concerts and 120 hours of magic and music! Every night from 7 pm to midnight, 3 stages present a prestigious array of world-famous artists.
