Experience Musical Mastery at the Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival


Monaco is legendary for many reasons. Its renowned array of sophisticated pleasures include a picture-perfect harbour filled with gleaming megayachts, chic boutiques that carry the latest and most lavish version of whatever your heart may desire, a Grand Prix that always manages to thrill, a Yacht Show that is second-to-none, elegant architecture that beguiles the eye and the sort of superb lifestyle that very few can attain. Yet, if all of this were not enough to make Monaco one of the most desired destinations in Europe, there’s yet another attraction that draws those in the know to this Principality – the Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival.

Now in its 12th year, the annual Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival has been showcasing jazz’s legends alongside some of its most promising new talents, since 2006. This year will be no different. For true lovers of jazz, as well as those who simply like music and are curious to find out more, the 2017 Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival should mark a can’t-miss item on the calendar. Block off some time between opening night on the 16th of November and the final performance on Saturday, 2nd of December, and get ready to be dazzled by musical fireworks.

Ever since its very first edition, 12 years ago, the Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival has been wowing fans of this freeform musical art with the quality of the acts that it has presented. Set in the Opéra Garnier Monte-Carlo, this event prides itself on bringing together an eclectic mix of not only some of the world’s most revered leading lights of jazz, but also those lesser known musicians who are making a name for themselves through the sheer force of their talent and virtuosity.

Supported by its royal patron, HSH Prince Albert II, this festival’s mission is to not only highlight the very best of accepted and celebrated contemporary and traditional jazz, but also to offer a forum for some of the more avant-garde, cutting-edge and experimental trends that are currently electrifying the music world. While not courting controversy, the Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival nonetheless displays a commitment and a particular flair for cultivating and rewarding musical creativity.

Open to all musical currents, with an ear to discovering new creations and stars, while still celebrating the great accomplishments and compositions of the giants of jazz, this event’s ambitious aim is to invite and share musical inspiration from around the globe. Attendees of the festival in 2017 can choose from an impressive lineup of established and emerging acts, including Marcus Miller, Cory Henry & The Funk Apostles, Chick Corea and Steve Gadd’s collaboration, The Corea/Gadd Band, Texas, Laurent Coulondre and Christophe.
