Fancy a new musical adventure? The Hanseatic city with its international harbor flair, legendary clubs and lively music scene has been a hotspot for jazz lovers for decades. And with The Jazz Room in Hamburg, a unique show is now coming to the city, bringing the unmistakable sound of New Orleans to the Elbe and promising you an evening full of rousing rhythms and groove.
What is The Jazz Room?
Jazz is the soundtrack of constant reinvention. Originating from an exciting mix of African, European and Caribbean influences in New Orleans, jazz has taken the syncopated rhythms of ragtime and the yearning sounds of the blues and created something completely new. With improvisation as its hallmark, the genre has left its mark on everything from hip-hop to electronic music over the decades, and its spirit of freedom and individuality lives on today.
With The Jazz Room, you can immerse yourself in the golden age of jazz for 60 minutes. A live band brings the spirit of 1920s New Orleans to life for you under the atmospheric glow of a street lamp. In addition to the classic jazz shows, you can also look forward to evenings that are specifically geared towards the blues or soul genres.
The Jazz Room in Hamburg: what shows are on?
The entertaining shows welcome guests aged 18 and over and run for around one hour each evening. Their varied program is constantly being expanded – you can currently look forward to the following concerts in Hamburg:
