Friends of jazz music "Jazzfreunde" Bad Ischl - Jazz fürs Salzkammergut
Jazz is becoming increasingly popular. And so it is not surprising that the number of jazz events is constantly increasing. This is also thanks to a very special formation from the Traun metropolis: the Jazzfreunde Bad Ischl.
The ambitious organizers are an association that promotes jazz in the Salzkammergut by organizing concerts with national and international musicians and supporting young, innovative artists. The aim is to bring jazz in all its diversity closer to an interested audience and to preserve a "jazz oasis" in the Salzkammergut. The Jazzfreunde Bad Ischl not only support young Austrian musicians, but also bring internationally renowned jazz greats to the region. Like at this event, for example ...

The Espen Eriksen Trio and Andy Sheppard first joined forces for two concerts in London in 2016. From the very first note, it was clear that this was a perfect match. To quote the jazz website "All About Jazz," "the symbiosis between the saxophonist and the trio is truly remarkable." In 2018, they released their first collaborative album, "Perfectly Unhappy," followed by a live album and another studio album, "As It Gets." This album was voted the 6th best jazz album of 2023 by Jazzwise.
After 18 years, seven albums, and regular tours across four continents, the Espen Eriksen Trio, with its unique group sound, is firmly established on the international jazz scene. With a career spanning more than four decades and collaborations with greats such as George Russell, Gil Evans, and Carla Bley, Andy Sheppard is one of Europe's leading saxophonists.
Together, they create top-tier melodic jazz that has prompted critics to search for their best superlatives and draw comparisons to the legendary "Belonging" quartet featuring Keith Jarrett and Jan Garbarek. "Together, these tracks form an album of stylish, inventive jazz improvisation that is near perfect." - Jazzwise
