the 11th Porthcawl International Jazz Festival will take place on the 13, 14 and 15 April. The major players include The John Miller Orchestra, The Pasadena Roof Orchestra, The Capital City Jazz Orchestra, Michael Janisch and the New York Standards Quartet, The B D Lenz Trio, The Nik Turner Quartet, The Gabrielle Ducomble Quartet, Wonderbrass, the Cottle Brothers Generations and Mike Harries and the Root Doctors. The Festival will also feature a wide range of the finest Welsh bands. Further information on Festival artists can be found on the festival website.
Commenting on the 2012 programme, Festival Director Wayne Warlow says “The main aim of the Porthcawl International Jazz Festival is to present a comprehensive programme of jazz styles ranging from traditional to contemporary fusion performed by artists of the highest quality. While we hope that, as usual, the Festival will bring into Porthcawl jazz enthusiasts from all over the UK and further afield, we never lose sight of the importance of our Festival as a community event. To this end there will also be workshops for young musicians and free access community performances in public places."
“We are grateful to the Arts Council of Wales, S A Brain & Co Ltd, Porthcawl Town Council, Porthcawl Chamber of Trade, Parkdean and other sponsors for their financial support and to The Porthcawl Grand Pavilion and the many other venues which enthusiastically provide a home for our events."
