OCT-LOFT国际爵士音乐节团队受邀参加第37届哥本哈根国际爵士音乐节
在B10现场举办过的众多演出中，来自丹麦的音乐家们总能以他们的独特风格，给我们留下深刻的印象。细数下来，B10现场与丹麦音乐人有过不少愉快的合作，包括The Seven Mile Journey、CALLmeKAT、Carl Winther、Girls in Airport、Signe Juhl Quartet等等。
在去年OCT-LOFT国际爵士音乐节上好评如潮的优雅女伶Sinne Eeg，以及压轴的Emil de Waal + Spejderrobot二重奏，应该也让大家记忆犹新。

Welcome to the 37th Edition of
Copenhagen Jazz Festival
欢迎来到第37届哥本哈根爵士音乐节
第37届哥本哈根爵士音乐节于7月3日开幕，超过1200场演出在遍布哥本哈根和腓特烈堡的100个场地举行。这座城市将不负其前卫多元的爵士之城的美誉，再次展现独特的魅力。
哥本哈根能够成为欧洲爵士乐之都，还要从上世纪50-60年代说起。一群来自美国的世界顶级爵士乐手来到哥本哈根，并在此落地生根，将爵士乐发扬光大。包括Dexter Gordon、Stan Getz、Ben Webster、Stuff Smith、Ed Thigpen、Thad Jones和Kenny Drew等。他们的精神仍影响着这座城市，并在后辈们的努力之下焕发新的光彩。
哥本哈根爵士音乐节继续致力于呈现国际顶尖乐手的表演，于此同时，它也通过展现各种不同的风格来更生动地描绘哥本哈根的爵士风貌，所涵盖的艺术形式包括即兴、现代爵士、摇摆和数不清的爵士乐分支。换言之，无论是老炮或菜鸟，儿童、青年或是老一辈，小清新、派对份子或是骨灰前卫乐迷，它都能为之带来独特的现场体验。
The 37th edition of Copenhagen Jazz Festival starts today Friday, July 3. With more than 1200 concerts spread throughout 100 venues in Copenhagen and Frederiksberg, the city manifests yet again that it can live up to its reputation of a diverse and progressive jazz city.
Copenhagen’s legendary status as one of the jazz capitals of Europe grew in the 1950s and 1960s, when a whole host of leading American jazz icons had their creative base in the city (Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, Ben Webster, Stuff Smith, Ed Thigpen, Thad Jones, Kenny Drew), and that spirit is still reflected and reinvented in the city today.
openhagen Jazz Festival continues to exhibit top international names, and at the same time, manages to reflect the vivid Copenhagen jazz scene that unfolds the genre and offers improvisation, modern jazz, swing and countless offshoots of jazz as an art form. In other words, live experiences for all: geeks and jazz newbies; children, youth and older generations; purists, party people and avant-garde experts. Copenhagen Jazz Festival is open to everyone.

音乐厅与俱乐部节目亮点
今年的节目中，最受瞩目的是3个精彩至极的二重奏。
经典组合Chick Corea和Herbie Hancock二重奏的门票数月前就已被抢购一空；来自巴西的Caetano Veloso和Gilberto Gil，他们则曾是他们国家60年代末期热带风潮革命的代表人物；而最具魅力的，当属由Tony Bennett和Lady Gaga二人组成的“Cheek To Cheek”了，他们将于音乐节中期在Tivoli公园的Plænen举行。
其他的引人注目的大人物包括Dr. John、Dianne Reeves、Brad Mehldau Trio、Salif Keita、Al Jarreau、Jamie Cullum、Rhiannon Giddens、Michel Camilo、David Sanborn和Lizz Wright等。
The top of this year’s program depicts three phenomenal duos. The historical duo appearance featuring Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock has been sold out for months. Another couple of excellent musicians are Brazilians Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil, who have been musical ambassadors for their homeland since the Tropicalia movement at the end of the 60s. The third and, by far, most glamorous couple consists of Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, performing at Plænen in Tivoli in the middle of the festival week with “Cheek To Cheek”. Other international headliners include Dr. John, Dianne Reeves, Brad Mehldau Trio, Salif Keita, Al Jarreau, Jamie Cullum, Rhiannon Giddens, Michel Camilo, David Sanborn and Lizz Wright.

About Copenhagen Jazz Festival
关于哥本哈根爵士音乐节
10天-100个场地-1000场音乐会
1979年以来的每个夏天，哥本哈根爵士音乐节都让爵士风潮席卷整座城市。它现已成为欧洲最重要的国际音乐盛事之一。取得这样的成就，在于哥本哈根爵士音乐节所注重的艺术性及创新性，深受丹麦和国际乐手与乐迷的认可。
在音乐节举办的10天中，整个丹麦首都将全身心地融入其中，为年复一年纷至沓来的25万观众呈现豪华的音乐盛宴。人们可以在街头巷尾、酒吧咖啡馆，音乐厅甚至露天场地，欣赏现场爵士乐表演——这些场所全部位于历史悠久的哥本哈根市中心。

哥本哈根能够成为欧洲爵士乐之都，还要从上世纪50-60年代说起。一群来自美国的世界顶级爵士乐手来到哥本哈根，并在此落地生根，将爵士乐发扬光大。Dexter Gordon、Stan Getz、Ben Webster、Stuff Smith、Ed Thigpen、Thad Jones和Kenny Drew都宣称哥本哈根是其家园所在。他们中的每一位都曾深受丹麦爵士乐大环境的影响，尤其是同期的著名爵士乐俱乐部Jazzhus Montmartre。同时，丹麦的一些杰出音乐家也在寻求向国际音乐舞台的突破，Alex Riel、Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen和Palle Mikkelborg就是其中代表人物。
乐迷和游客可以随时在露天舞台免费欣赏现场表演，这些舞台的选址全部在市中心区。众所周知，哥本哈根有为数众多的咖啡馆和音乐演出场所，在音乐节期间，它们全都会成为爵士乐的舞台，从而创造出笼罩全城的迷人爵士氛围；彼时的哥本哈根，从早到晚，无论走到何处，耳畔都会响起爵士乐。正如哥本哈根爵士音乐节总监Signe Lopdrup所说，“人们不仅可以期待一次精彩的音乐体验，还可以感受音乐节期间哥本哈根城市中弥漫的爵士乐氛围”。

作为听众，你可以到皇家剧院，哥本哈根歌剧院和Jean Nouvel的世界顶级建筑Koncerthus中欣赏一场同为世界顶级的爵士乐表演；也可以到码头地区，跳到清凉的河水中欣赏丹麦和国际流行爵士乐。“Something Else”是哥本哈根爵士音乐节的另一个亮点，作为该计划的一部分，爵士乐和其他音乐的跨界表演将在乐手们的演绎下不断推陈出新。哥本哈根爵士音乐节也有针对孩子们的活动——“儿童爵士音乐节”。每年夏天，哥本哈根东部的公园中都会吸引数以千计的孩子们和家长，他们能在活动中欣赏现场爵士乐演出，观看马戏表演、参与绘画讲座和歌唱等一系列趣味活动。
另哥本哈根音乐节引以为豪的是，除了爵士乐的乐迷和狂热爱好者，它也不断吸引着众多新的爵士乐听众，包括老年人、青少年，甚至幼儿和他们的父母，这一切源于音乐节为不同人群定制的各种活动。作为游客，哥本哈根对你而言将是一座友好和充满新奇体验的城市，也是一座安全的城市，让你能放心的周游其中，从早到晚，随时享受爵士乐。现代化开放的国际大都市，哥本哈根的这一特性会在爵士音乐节中表现的淋漓尽致。

Copenhagen’s legendary status as one of the jazz capitals of Europe grew in the 1950s and 1960s, when a whole host of leading American jazz icons had their creative base in the city. Among those who have called Copenhagen home are Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, Ben Webster, Stuff Smith, Ed Thigpen, Thad Jones and Kenny Drew. Each and every one of them has drawn inspiration from Denmark’s jazz scene and the era’s most important jazz club: Jazzhus Montmartre. This was also the time when some of Denmark’s best musicians had their international breakthrough, musicians like Alex Riel, Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen and Palle Mikkelborg.
Copenhagen’s unique jazz history is a key factor in the exceptionally high level of the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, something that can be experienced at the many free open-air stages strategically located throughout the historical city centre. Together with Copenhagen’s record number of cafés and music venues, these stagers create a unique atmosphere, bringing the city alive with jazz from early morning to late at night.People don’t only come for a fantastic musical experience, but for the unique atmosphere throughout Copenhagen when jazz takes over the city.
The Thing @ "21st Century Jazz", Skuespilhuset
The festival audience can listen to top international jazz names at the stunning Royal Theatre, Copenhagen’s Opera House and Jean Nouvel’s architectural world-class Koncerthus – as well as along the harbour front, where they can take a dip in the clear waters to the sounds of Danish and international jazz. Copenhagen Jazz Festival also proudly presents music at the border of jazz and other genres as part of the programme ‘Something Else’. And everyone’s welcome to take their kids to the beautiful parks to the east of the city where thousands of children and their parents flock every summer to enjoy a packed programme of live jazz, circus, painting workshops and singing – all part of the ‘Jazz for Kids’ festival programme.
Copenhagen Jazz Festival takes a pride in reaching many – and new – audiences, with tailor-made programmes for pensioners and teenagers, kids and their families, as well as catering for jazz aficionados and enthusiasts. Visitors can look forward to Copenhagen as a friendly and creative city where it’s safe to wander around accompanied by jazz night and day. A modern and open-minded metropolis that can be experienced at its very best during Copenhagen Jazz Festival.
