“Crossroads Jazz e altro in Emilia Romagna” is a traveling festival that takes place throughout the region, and is one of the major European initiatives in this area.
From 4 March to 24 July 60 concerts involving about 450 artists and over twenty municipalities.
The jazz styles, range from the African-American mainstream to the European avant-garde, from gypsy jazz to fusion, from swing to the most current hybridizations of musical languages.
Crossroads 2021 is organized as always by Jazz Network in collaboration with the Department of Culture of the Emilia-Romagna Region and with the support of the Ministry of Culture and other institutions.
