Continuously enrich the local concert scene with performances by mostly younger Bands. “Our goal is, with a broad spectrum of the current scene map,” describes Dolce the undogmatic program selection, which mixes Jazz and Pop, hip-hop and electronic music on purpose. The stylistic openness meets the tastes of the majority of the young audience. The starting point for Jazz Montez, the Kunstverein Familie Montez was, in parallel, Dolce and stone mark soon embarked on a regular series of concerts in the “jungle room” of the Studio in Frankfurt.
Frankfurt as a vital part of the German scene
The second season began in October 2019. It was terminated as a result of the Corona pandemic in March in advance. Already last summer, had to invite Dolce and stone mark the idea of all the Bands on the day after their concerts to Lotte-Lindenberg-Studio, to a piece for a Vinyl Album. “With the Compilation we want to show that Frankfurt is a vital part of the German scene and a place where you can as a jazz musician to dock,” says Dolce, who is himself a Saxophonist.

And Kira Linn, the Wiesbaden master baritone-is a saxophonist, he had proposed the collaboration with the singer Laura dead Hagen. Conversely, Dolce continues to be a significant degree of trust in a good friend. “The quintet Conic Rose, trumpeter Konstantin Döben we have booked, without music, heard of him,” he says, and cites as reason: “Because Franzi plays All there.”
