Jazz in Quellenpark 2009
Categories: Family and Kids, Dining, Entertainment
On Saturday mornings from June 6th through September 5th, a series of Jazz concerts will be held outside of the town museum's barn. This unique atmosphere with the warm weather in Old Town makes the perfect setting for open-air concerts. It is a family friendly event filled with musical diversity. The concerts begin at 11:30 a.m. and end at 2:30 p.m., and as always, admission is free.
Jazz am Quellenpark
- which also means Jazz at the Source Park, is an enjoyable activity for the whole family. It is reputed as a high-caliber program and should not be missed. While children play on the lawn, parents and grandparents get to enjoy not only the live music, but also cider, a glass of champagne and a hearty snack. There is seating available overlooking the stage, but if one would like to completely relax the only thing you need is a blanket. The stage is set in the beautiful park gardens nestled between the extensive deciduous trees.
This year a varied program is offered to Jazz fans in and around the town of Bad Soden am Taunus (Bad Soden am Taunus vacation rentals | Bad Soden am Taunus travel guide). There will be 14 volumes of different Jazz styles -- Swing from New Orleans to Big Band sound and contemporary Jazz genres. On opening day, Saturday, June 6, "Echoes of Jazz" will be played. The full series is listed below and also on the Bad Soden am Taunus Web site.
