The programme of this year's edition, the sixteenth, as every year, offers a variety of jazz genres, from traditional to contemporary; as well as performances by world-renowned musicians and emerging artists from the four islands that make up the Balearic archipelago. In addition to the live performances, there will be lectures, master classes and a film series dedicated to cinema and jazz.
"We firmly believe in the fact that collaboration between international and local artists can lead to interesting creative and artistic fusions contributes significantly to the promotion of musicians from our region." Roberto Menéndez, Director Jazz Voyeur Festival
Balearic artists can learn a lot from the experience and talent of international artists, while the latter can discover new perspectives and musical styles through collaboration with them. It is for this reason that every year we are committed to offering in every concert the performance of great international artists together with artists from our islands.
This year's 2023 line-up features Matt Bianco, Stacey Kent, Zenet and the celebration of the music of Tete Montoliu, all of them prominent names on the international jazz scene. In addition, we have programmed the Chicago Mass Choir performing the 'Spirituals of B.B. King', an exciting and unique experience.
