Tal Gamlieli Trio - Green Pilot Tour

"They travelled by train as a relaxed way as a necessary one for tours. It's a big success as well the fact that the group connected with audiences sharing the idea of a new way of touring in the context of climate change, encouraging environmental awareness among as many persons as possible"
Tal Gamlieli's Green Pilot tour was a big success. The musicians reported that the logistics were always under control and smooth, artistically the concerts worked very well and the reactions of audiences were amazing. They have explained that in each concert they were telling a small story about the tour, also sharing the card made of seeds with a QR to stream their music.

Reactions were of surprise and joy in each concert. It happened in Jamin Juan (Juan Les Pins, France), at Unterfahrt (Munich, Germany), at Enjoy Jazz (Ludwigshafen, Germany), at Jazz im Paradise (Weimer, Germany) and at Jazzment Klub (Szcezin, Poland). They travelled by train as a relaxed way as a necessary one for tours. It's a big success as well the fact that the group connected with audiences sharing the idea of a new way of touring in the context of climate change, encouraging environmental awareness among as many persons as possible. They really enjoyed the experience and hope that it will be an example for other musicians, artistic directors, management companies, booking agents etc.

Concerning Taller de Músics, this first Green Pilot Tour has been finally the expected turning point . In fact, the organisation has applied to Musicaire Call (green recovery) with an ambitious project in this sense. Selected or not, EJN Call has boosted the team to more sustainable decisions in Taller de Músics actions.
