The 2nd edition of Clubedo jazz event happens from 16 to 14 December, in Porto. It is organised by the Porta-Jazz Association and leads a journey to different forms of improvisational compositions and programmed sounds.
The outright intention is to revive the jazz circuit in town, with iconic jazz clubs hosting emerging bands, both national and international, on a regular basis.
Clubedo first edition was part of the Porta-Jazz Festival in 2018, the essential jazz event in Porto; but this year, the Clubedo event has its own emphasis and it is held separately while working as a preview of the Porta Jazz Festival, which takes place between 7th and 9th February 2020, at Rivoli.
The 2019 Clubedo edition brings together renowned artists, emerging talents and international partnerships, as its main goal is to bolster jazz and continually promote the renewal of this music genre.
The 10-day event includes 11 concerts, a school gathering and a record release. All wrapped in long awaited returns and some novelties.
Porto hosts Luís Lapa & Pé de Cabra, the Trio João, Puzzle, North Camels Large Ensemble, Wiz, Filipe Teixeira Trio "Tao", Sextet Mário Santos "bloco A6", Galip "Cale", Aladdin Killers, Paula Sousa and Ohad Talmor Trio.
Price ticketing varies from free entry to 8 euros, and Porta-Jazz members are entitled to free entrance in all sessions.
