During the Siena Jazz International Summer School, the city of the Palio is visited by a variety of great Italian and international Jazz musicians. And luckily for us, they will not just teach but also play.
All concerts will take place at the Enoteca Italiana, the wine store located inside Siena's medieval fortress. Nothing better than listening to world-class jazz whilst sipping a fine glass of Tuscan red or white wine.
July, 24 - Roberto Gatto N.Y. quartet
July, 25 - Omer Avitai Quintet "Band of the East", feat. Avishai Cohen
July, 26 - Miguel Zenon
August, 1 - Diana Torto, John Taylor, Anders Jormin
August 2 - Steven Bernstein, Greg Osby, Michael Blake, Pietro Leveratto, Eric Harland
And last but not least all concerts are for free. Considering the great class of the performing musicians this is surprising but definitely more than welcome news!
Enoteca Italiana Bastione S. Filippo, Siena
Concerts start at 9.45pm.
