Südtirol Jazzfestival Alto Adige

Jazz Music Promotion Südtirol Alto Adige (JMP) is non-profit cultural association which was founded in Bozen/Bolzano in 1982. JMP has been bringing international contemporary and experimental music to South Tyrol and supporting local artists for over 30 years. Ever since its nascent days the main focus of the association has been the promotion of jazz music, culminating each year in the production of Südtirol Jazzfestival Alto Adige. We are motivated by the desire to support the creativity, imagination and ideas of emerging artists and provide an important contribution to their progress. Many of the artists we supported in the past have gone on to become famed names on the international jazz scene. Bringing artists together and creating new projects is high on the association's philosophy and list of priorities. Unique concerts often lay the foundation for long, solid bonds between musicians and collaborations which span the decades.
