Michel Camilo

For the 7th year running the A to Jazz festival is presenting a delightful programme, featuring some of the top names in world jazz, as well as elite Bulgarian musicians.

From 7 to 8 July, audiences will be able to enjoy four concerts each night at the open-air stage in Southern Park 2 in Sofia, between the Earth and People Museum and Spartak swimming pool.

Istanbul is set to become home to a brand new jazz festival at Zorlu PSM to bring the genre at the forefront of the arts and culture scene of the city, looking at it from a broad perspective while adopting the polyphony of it. 

Istanbul's Zorlu Performance Arts Center (PSM) launched its fourth season program at a press conference held on Sept. 6. 

Zorlu PSM General Director Murat Abbas said they would bring alternative names to Turkey for the first time in the new season. 

"We attach importance to jazz music this season, too. We will host Chick Corea, Michel Camilo and Tomatito," he added. 

The Borusan Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra (BIPO) will be on the stage in Istanbul with the participation of Grammy award-winning pianist and composer Michel Camilo on March 19.
