It’s Madrid 2025, but it feels like New Orleans 1920. The lights are dim and warm, a trumpet starts playing that Ella Fitzgerald song, and the atmosphere is charged with stories you didn’t remember living. Jazz, that language that everyone understands and that now you can continue to feel in “The Jazz Room” Madrid.
A journey through time to the soul of creativity and rhythm that can be experienced on selected dates during the coming months and that finds its ideal setting in the Nuevo Café Berlin and Sala Clamores. Tracks such as Sing Sing Sing by Louis Prima, Summertime by Billie Holiday or Ain’t Misbehavin’ by Fats Waller will provide the soundtrack to an evening in which, for one night, vinyl will become reality. Seating is limited, so be sure to reserve your tickets before they sell out!
What is “The Jazz Room”?
“The Jazz Room” is a show that goes beyond a live concert: it ‘s a chance to live in 1920s New Orleans for an hour. Have a drink in an idyllic location while listening to the sound of trumpet and piano, and feel that life is a little bit more arranged than before you walked in.
From classics of the genre such as On The Sunny Side Of The Street by Louis Armstrong, to more modern ones including Fly Me To The Moon by Frank Sinatra or All Of Me by Ella Fitzgerald. An experience that leaves room, as it could not be otherwise, to improvisation in songs like Cantaloupe Island.
Jazz, its origins and the show
To find the roots of jazz, we have to travel to Louisiana in the early twentieth century. The streets of New Orleans sound like Blues and Ragtime, and the influence of the African-American communities mixes the more traditional sounds of African and European music with Caribbean music and creates something totally new, jazz. With catchy rhythms and the ability to improvise sounds in each performance, this genre creates a form of expression for the musicians, and an escape for the audience.
A way of understanding (and listening to) life that reached other states like New York or Chicago, and that now make jazz a universal language that is also spoken in Madrid, and that is possible to feel in “The Jazz Room”. The trumpet, the voice, the saxophone or the piano become the messengers of a unique dialogue between the audience and the musicians, where no two shows are the same, neither in notes nor in feeling.
