About us - activities
Eujazz is a partnership of 10 organizations in the Euregio Meuse-Rhine. Each is active – fully or partly – in the areas described below. Our current joint project is the Eujazz Real Book.
Concerts and festivals
Our jazz is innovative, exploring and adventurous, while honoring its roots. By blending with world music, hiphop, pop, classical music and other art forms it appeals to a wide and diverse audience of all ages
Our line ups feature international stars, national, regional and local icons as well as promising new talent.

Talent development
Several Eujazz partners support the development of young talent – in close cooperation with conservatories and music schools - by:
• giving lectures on the practical aspects of being a musician
• organizing workshops led by renowned artists
• hosting competitions
• offering performance opportunities at concerts and festivals
Social projects
Improvisation and communication lie at the heart of jazz. We use this art form as a tool to help people strengthen their self awareness and social skills.
In Dutch Limburg we run ongoing improvisation workshops open to everyone - no musical experience required.. These workshops are aimed at young children (age 6-12), seniors in care homes, and residents of refugee centers.
Productions
The current cross-border project is theEujazz Real Book. Over 250 works by Euregional composers have been collected into 4 volumes. The next step is to make this rich repertoire accessibleto the public, first vthroughdigital platforms, then through live performances.
