ZKB Jazzpreis Festival
THE ZKB JAZZPREIS FESTIVAL 2024 WILL TAKE PLACE FROM 22 TO 27 SEPTEMBER.
For over twenty years, Zürcher Kantonalbank has been supporting young, innovative Swiss bands with the ZKB Jazzpreis at Moods. Winning the prize not only brings financial support, but often also inclusion in the Pro Helvetia Foundation's priority jazz promotion programme, giving the band the opportunity to present their music on international stages.THE FESTIVAL
The festival is a six-day event full of music and talent. Six nominated bands are given the chance to present themselves to a jury of national and international experts and a broad audience. The bands not only have to impress with their musical quality, but also demonstrate their professionalism and show their development potential.COMPETITION
Of the six nominated bands, the two best will reach the final and compete for Switzerland's most lucrative jazz prize: 15,000 francs for the winner and 5,000 francs for the runners-up. The prize money is to be used for the music; for studio productions, CD and label costs, for instruments, advertising or gigs.APPLICATION
The application for the ZKB Jazzpreis 2024 will be open from April 8 2024 and run until May 31 2024. The bands selected for the ZKB Jazzpreis Festival 2024 will be notified at the end of June.
