On the penultimate weekend of October (October 20-21), Narva will be filled with stunning, autumn-colorful jazz – the international festival iDeeJazz will be held in the city for the seventh year in a row!
iDeeJazz brings together renowned artists as well as rising stars from Europe, the USA and Africa. Our goal is to offer listeners a diverse and high-quality cultural event, to introduce different styles and directions of jazz music.
The iDeeJazz festival program consists of many great concerts and inspiring master classes. The American singer and songwriter Adam Falcon, the truly charismatic jazz singer from South Africa Tutu Puoane, real French jazz virtuosos Laurent de Wilde and Pierrick Pedron, the legend of the Estonian music scene Tango Nuevo, the international guitar virtuoso duo John Stowell will share their talent with the Narva public. Niklas Winter and the emotional French music group Madeleine & Salomon.
The festival concerts will take place in two majestic buildings in Narva: Narva College, which has already become the home of jazz music in the city, and for the first time in the restored Narva Town Hall!
The modern, cozy and dignified building of Narva College offers excellent conditions for enjoying jazz music. The architectural and interior features of the building create the opportunity for performers to perform interesting performances and give the audience an unforgettable musical experience.
Narva Town Hall, a historical building from the 17th century, one of the first Baroque buildings in Estonia, is a symbol of Narva and offers a unique atmosphere. The Town Hall is a great place to connect the past and present through jazz and create common cultural ground for the future.
The halls of the Town Hall are truly majestic and beautiful thanks to the recently completed comprehensive renovation of the building. We are grateful for the opportunity to offer our viewers different genres of art within the festival!
We are very pleased that we can bring high-level jazz music to the residents of the city of Narva and create a festival that unites people of different cultures.
Festival director Oleg Pisarenko: “Narva has become a real European jazz city, where the tradition of quality jazz concerts has lasted for more than 10 years. If in the summer the Estonian jazz resorts of Narva-Jõesuu and Haapsalu appear before our eyes, then in the fall all jazz lovers come to Narva for the seventh time. Since I myself come from Narva, it is pleasant and important for me to preserve and develop this cultural tradition that unites people.
