Step across the border: Slovenia
At the most prestigious Viennese jazz club, Porgy & Bess, under the title Step Across the Border, the showcases focus on music scenes that are less known in Austria. From October 4 to 9, they will turn the spotlight on Slovenia’s jazz landscape.
This year, over six very special evenings, some of the most prominent representatives of Slovenian jazz will perform with their mostly international ensembles. The festival’s curator is Bogdan Benigar, long-time director of the Ljubljana Jazz Festival and artistic director of the Druga Godba festival. All concerts will also be available online (pay what you wish), and a 6-day festival ticket (120 euros) is available, granting access to all concerts. Special thanks go to Christoph Huber, the artistic director of the Porgy & Bess club and director of Skica Wien, Aljaž Arih.
