From 10-13th of May 2012 the city Amersfoort in the Netherlands will once again organize a big international music conference and showcase festival for international jazz. The event will host several international delegations who participate in an intensive four day program with seminars, showcases, blend concerts, regular audience performances and an improvisational clash.
Last year we hosted foreign delegations from Thailand, India, Spain, Germany, Canada, Taiwan, Kosovo, Norway and Australia. The aim of the event was to connect foreign international jazz networks and music to the Dutch jazz scene. On the 13th of May there was a the big JazzNL convention and showcase program for professionals.
