One of Europe's most enduring and influential jazz festivals is now available.

The Berliner Jazztage was one of Europe's most enduring and influential jazz festivals. Founded in 1964 in West Berlin during the Cold War, it was envisioned as a cultural bridge between East and West, showcasing jazz as a symbol of freedom and artistic expression.

Hosting the inaugural festival at the newly completed Berliner Philharmonie, designed by Hans Scharoun, underscored the festival's commitment to innovation and excellence in jazz music. Dr. Martin Luther King contributed a foreword in which he emphasized the power of jazz as a source of strength for the American Civil Rights Movement, “Jazz speaks for life (…) This is triumphant music”.

Famous US-jazz celebrities, such as Duke Ellington, Lionel Hampton, and Gil Evans, set the tone during the first decades. The 1960s and 1970s played a pivotal role in the development of music history and reflect the evolution of the festival’s curation during socio-political developments: By featuring African American jazz musicians, the festival helped introduce these artists to mainstream audiences, fostering greater acceptance and appreciation of their work, and therefore breaking down racial barriers. The Berliner Jazztage became a “Window to the World”.
