The Gaume Jazz Festival, celebrated for its 40th edition in Rossignol, Belgium, featured the theme 'Jazz and Peace' in reflection of historical tragedies, resonating deeply with the local community.
The concert 'No Wall, No War' incorporated choreography and music to evoke the hopes and disappointments of post-Berlin Wall reunification, symbolizing the intricate ties between art and history.
'Rousilvo' by Dîne Doneff poignantly reflected on ethnic identity and cultural erasure resulting from changing political boundaries, emphasizing the emotional weight of music that blurs the lines between improvisation and composition.
The festival thrives under the dedication of Jean-Pierre Bissot, whose steadfast leadership has guided its evolution over four decades, ensuring a rich program that continually adapts to resonate with contemporary themes.
