About the “Jazz panorama”
Project Jazz Panorama organized by Europe Jazz Network is the most comprehensive online guide on European jazz to date. It intends to provide musicians, agencies, promoters and the general public a practical insight into the jazz scene of each listed country. The information offers greater understanding of national situations regarding the present-day jazz life, performance opportunities, funding, support structures, advanced jazz education and other related subjects.
By making this information widely accessible, Europe Jazz Network hopes to stimulate mobility of jazz artists and students among countries and also to create a clearer overall picture of the valuable contribution that jazz is making towards the arts in Europe.
