This collective anniversary is the culmination of what the last 50 years have been all about: shining a light on those who make Belgian jazz. A celebration that is first and foremost human, because les Lundis d’Hortense is a story written by many: “by and for musicians,” as we like to repeat.
An anniversary that will honor artists, and that will celebrate all those contributing to this project’s existence: the venues, the teams, the volunteers, our association members, and, of course, our audience.
An anniversary that mirrors the togetherness of these 50 years: full of discoveries, experiences and creativity.
This celebration is not an ending, but a crossing point.
An initiative to rejuvenate the image of jazz, make it attractive to young people.
A spotlight on our ongoing distribution and promotion work.
A promise to keep growing, enlarging our musical horizons, discovering new sounds, welcoming new music-lovers.
A way to say thank you to all the administrators, musicians, interns, partner venues and faithful audience.
Long live Belgian Jazz!
