You can also listen to a selection of this year’s concerts at home or on the go. Thanks to our cooperation with the ARD radio network and Deutschlandradio, you once again have the opportunity to follow Jazzfest Berlin on air. On the Friday of the festival, Deutschlandfunk Kultur will broadcast the concerts live from Haus der Berliner Festspiele and from the jazz club A-Trane – featuring the Amir ElSaffar New Quartet, the Sheen Trio led by clarinetist Shabnam Parvaresh, as well as the Immanuel Wilkins Quartet, among others. Matthias Wegner will host this radio evening.
