Festival season opens!
What with the Cabaret Frappe, the Rencontres Brel and Vienne Jazz Festival this summer will be particularly musical in Grenoble-Isere!
The best known event, Vienne Jazz Festival, is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. For three decades it has brought the world’s top jazz, blues and gospel musicians to play at its now mythical venue, aided and abetted by the finest exponents of Brazilian, Cuban and African music. Vienne has become one of the world’s essential events, packing almost 7,000 people into a Roman theatre dating from the first century AD, night after night for two weeks. This year will be devoting special attention to jazz singers, notably Norah Jones, Dee Dee Bridgwater, Diana Krall and Liz Mc Comb, but also on a lighter note such as Joe Cocker, Elvis Costello, Paolo Conte and Bobby McFerrin.
However it would be a pity to overlook Vienne’s little brothers and sisters, certainly less well known but every bit as enjoyable. Every year the Cabaret Frappe staged by Grenoble City Council features young artists from near and far in a magical open-air setting in the old town. In all there will be nine days of concerts, three venues and more than 50 performers at this remarkable gathering!
At an altitude of about 900 metres in the midst of the verdant Chartreuse massif, the Rencontres Brel should not be missed, with five evenings of eclectic music. The environment is also on the agenda with an over-riding concern for sustainable development, reflected in a drive to separate waste, with returnable glasses and dishes, car-sharing, eco-toilets, green electricity, sales of local produce and a scheme to compensate for carbon-dioxide emissions. The Rencontres Brel is very determined to become a benchmark for future ecofestivals!
Wherever you may be staying, high or low, whatever your age, whether you swing to jazz or rock, reggae or world music, or indeed French singers in the Brel tradition, you will find plenty to tickle your fancy in Grenoble-Isere this year. So, bring on the music, maestro!
