Jazz Lives

The documentary aims to get the “spirit of jazz" across to the young. It wants to excite their interest in this musical style and attendant attitude to life, projected in the documentary by newcomers as much as major luminaries such as Al Jarreau and Chick Corea, or pop singers such as Elton John – they talk about their love of this music which combines spontaneity, improvisation and communication at the highest musical level.

Commissioned by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Education, Art and Culture.
