Three jazz legends at Ascona, all in the same evening: trumpeter Jon Faddis, drummer Duffy Jackson, and saxophonist Big Jay McNeely. Three great musicians and entertainers who were capable of moving and, at the same time amuse, the JazzAscona audience!

Tre leggende del Jazz riunite ad Ascona in un'unica serata: il trombettista Jon Faddis, il batterista Duffy Jackson e il sassofonista Big Jay McNeely. Tre grandi musicisti e intrattenitori che hanno fatto commuovere e allo stesso tempo divertire il pubblico del JazzAscona!

The evening started with rain and ended with a standing ovation by the great blues singer Philipp Fankhauser, whose hoarse voice delighted the JazzAscona audience for two hours. Yesterday the Pink Turtle arrived at JazzAscona, bringing their liveliness and charge that turned Ascona's jazz pink!

A delightful Tuesday evening at JazzAscona: Dado Moroni and his trio - vocals, guitar, and bass - fascinated us with their sounds, literally poetry in music. Surprising performance also by the Michel Pastre Big Band, accompanied by a jazz legend: great drummer Duffy Jackson. JAB took over the later part of the evening and proved to have become very popular among JazzAscona's younger visitors!

E' lunedì sera al JazzAscona eppure è impossibile andare a dormire prima delle due del mattino! Dopo una performance eccezionale di Christian Willisohn "Southern Spirit", il pubblico è stato nuovamente catturato dai mitici JAB e da una Jam Session strepitosa che ha visto un susseguirsi di colpi di scena: Cecile McLorin e il Jazz Burlesque in un crescendo di musica e divertimento!
