The Delhi Jazz Festival is a unique festival that attempts to bring together Jazz from different countries on one platform. After a series of successful initiatives with the SAARC countries, with support from Ministry of External Affairs and ICCR, which include “The South Asian Bands Festival” and “The South Asian Artist Camps”, once again ICCR and SEHER join hands for the first ever truly International Jazz festival in Delhi.

As Jazz has spread around the world, it has drawn on local, national, and regional musical cultures, its aesthetics being adapted to its varied environments and giving rise to many distinctive styles – this festival will showcase Jazz Bands from nine countries including India. The 3-day festival will present 3 bands each evening and will be held at the sprawling and serene surroundings of Nehru Park in New Delhi. The festival is scheduled to take place from April 8 – April 10 2011.

Being a cross cultural initiative by SEHER and having the support of the Ministry of External Affairs, Govt. of India and ICCR, “The Delhi Jazz Festival” hopes to open the window which lets the breeze from the East and the West flow across each other harmoniously.
