And the bound with its territory is even more manifest for its 25th edition, with concerts and wine tastings in Cormòns and nearby towns involving winemaking facilities, wine bars, historical mansions and palaces – all the while celebrating its quest for peace and brotherhood, too.
Under the artistic direction of Mauro Bardusco, Jazz & Wine of Peace 2022 will feature 25 concerts starring Italian and international jazz artists: from Michel Portal (France) to Javier Girotto (Argentina), from Bugge Wesseltoft (Norway) to Henrik Schwarz (Germany). Plus emerging musicians like Binker & Moses (UK) and Elder Ones Quartet withAmirtha Kidambi (India).
The 25th edition of the festival, which is supported by the Municipality of Cormòns, Friuli Venezia Giulia Regional Government and many other public and private institutions, is dedicated to the memory of late Claudio Corrà, Fulvio Coceani and Paolo Burato, who extensively contributed to Circolo Controtempo and Jazz & Wine of Peace.
It's been establishing itself as one of the not-to-be missed events of Jazz & Wine of Peace. “Jazz&Taste” takes visitors aorund the Collio hills into wine cellars and wine makers' facilities for guided wine tastings with professional sommeliers, combined with live music inspired directly by the wines themselves and composed on purpose.
