Jazz Openair
Offbeat presents an open-air highlight at its finest that will take place at Theaterplatz; in the event of rain, the concert will take place in the foyer of the Theater Basel. It will start with the Brass Battle: Part 1 at 19:00. The Streetbandits are a six-member brass powerhouse from Basel that have been shaking up the scene since 2021. The young and energetic musicians combine their inspiration from the traditional New Orleans brass band sound with influences from pop and a driving techno component. Brasslufthamma are a 13-member brass band from neighboring Baden-Württemberg. Far removed from dusty conceptions of classical brass music, they will perform a diverse program of party, dance, and pop covers; rousing 80s and 90s songs; grooving rap pieces; and jaunty own compositions.
This will be followed by a capella jazz by the Maria von Ruette OWK Band (Jazzcampus) at 19:45 and the Brass Battle Part 2 at 20:30.
Admission to this event is free.
