On Friday 29 August 2025, the Jazz en Vacances festival returns to Concise for another colourful edition!
On the programme for the 52nd edition are some exceptional concerts with renowned jazz artists in an idyllic setting on the shores of Lake Neuchâtel.
This year’s programme promises to be rich and varied, with performances by some of the biggest names in jazz. You’ll have the pleasure of listening to:
– Belo Horizonte : A jazz fusion quartet combining Brazilian music and improvisation, born at the AMR in Geneva, paying tribute to Hermeto Pascoal and Toninho Horta, with guest singer Chiara Azzarelli.
– Harasse Jazz Band: The King Louis Swing Orchestra fuses swing, jump blues and boogie-woogie in vibrant performances that keep you dancing non-stop.
– King Louis Swing Orchestra : Since 1976, the Harasse Jazz Band has been livening up the Swiss scene with its traditional jazz, drawing its inspiration from the lively rhythms of New Orleans for vibrant concerts.
– Ladyva: An exceptionally talented boogie-woogie pianist, Ladyva is doing us the honour of returning to Concise after winning over the audience on her previous visit. A virtuoso keyboard player, her enthusiasm and infectious energy have made her an international benchmark for boogie-woogie. Get ready to vibrate to the rhythm of her spectacular playing!
