People love music, engagement and bus rental Detroit festivals and if you are one of those few who enjoys such gatherings, then you are going to absolutely fall in love with Detroit International Jazz Festival. For one, it is also popularly known as Detroit Jazz Festival, one of the largest festivals of its kind in the world. This fun tourist magnet used to be known as the Montreux-Detroit Jazz Festival until it became much more localized in 2000. Back in 2005 and 2006, the organizers, once again, changed its name because of the active involvement and sponsorship by large motor company, Ford Motor Company. Ever since then, Mack Avenue Records took over the whole organization and the name is known known singularly as Detroit International Jazz Festival.
Despite the frequent name change, the fun activities and events are pretty much very jazzed up. The funny thing is that you do not need to be a fan of jazz music to get into the groove. Just bring your enthusiasm and dancing shoes along and you will soon find yourself deeply embracing and joining up all the activities, food, drinks and performances.
This year, 2013, the directors stayed true to the main motive of the event, which is to bring together artists and performers who are truly passionate about jazz in ALL forms. You will be surprised with the sheer number of different ways to get perform jazz and it was nothing short of mind-blowing. So, you get to make new friends, do something different while learning about the multiple ways creative people express themselves in the form of jazz. It is truly an amazing bus rental Detroit event for everyone, despite knowing very little about jazz and the musicians.
In fact, the people at the event will often tell you about this ‘language of jazz’ and about how all the different types of jazz have an amazing way of touching your life and turning things around for the better.
At the festival, you celebrate the journey jazz has experienced along the way, reveling and celebrating the history and spirit of jazz. It has created and pushed against traditional boundaries.
This year, some of the most popular jazz names made an appearance at Lake St. Clair and they are none other than jazz powerhouses Ursula Walker, Jeannine Course-Miller and Barbara Ware. And of course, we can’t leave out speaking about the appearance of Johnny Trudell who showed us what true trumpet-playing was all about.
