For the fifth consecutive year, the Esplanade and the Forum Rolex will be taken over by storm by jazz! For the time of one spring week, notes will resound daily at noon on the Esplanade and on Wednesday evening at the Forum Rolex.
On the Esplanade at noon:
The JATP invites student bands from EJMA (Jazz and Contemporary Music School of Lausanne) to play on EPFL’s main square. The bands are formed for the event and run a wide gamut of styles.
At the Forum Rolex on Wednesday, May 20, at 6:30 p.m.:
This year, we are thrilled to welcome David Murray Infinity Quartet to campus. David Murray was born in 1955 in Oakland, California. He entered the world of jazz music at a young age and has since been involved in a plethora of ensembles (World Saxophone Quartet-WSQ, David Murrey Octet, big band, smaller ensembles, duets, even playing solo), sometimes putting down his tenor sax to pick up a bass clarinet. David Murray and his quartet will present a concert rooted in traditional jazz, with a fine selection of musicians: David Murray (tenor sax & bass clarinet), John Betsch (drums), Pepe Rivero (piano) and Reinier Elizarde (doublebass)
