For the second year running. we partnered with the Melbourne International Jazz Festival and brought a delegation of international buyers and bookers to the world-renowned event.
It was a packed schedule, with visits to PBS Radio and ABC Jazz, Monash and Melbourne Universities, the Victorian College of the Arts and the Melbourne Electronic Sound Studio, plus the Melbourne Walking Tour and the Scar Tree Walking Tour, and plenty of networking events and live Australian jazz. After the success of last year’s event, the Melbourne Jazz Meet-Up made a return, taking place at Spiegel Haus on Lonsdale St, bringing together jazz communities from all over Australia and the world.
Huge thanks to Hadley Agrez and the entire team at the Melbourne International Jazz Festival for being the best partners, and this year’s wonderful delegation: Jason Olaine from Jazz at Lincoln Center, journalist Mitsutaka Nagira and Pelin Opcin from London Jazz Festival.
Here are some photos from our time with the delegation.
