Best city in Europe for Jazz?!!!

MJay · 12-27-2009, 04:42 PM

Paris, Berlin, Prague (might be a little bit biased in this one), London.

Along with France, it's a birthplace of jazz (in Europe). Berlin is known for it's disco scene, but it's jazz scene is great.

Have you ever visited any venues in any of the countries you mentioned?

Yes, I visited venues in Prague and Berlin.

What venues would you suggest?

I'll guess Paris and Rotterdam, but I've never been to Europe. I do remember seeing something on the big Montreux festival in Switzerland, but I don't know if it's a jazz place the rest of the year. I might just sit and read responses instead.

Stockholm and Copenhagen used to be great, but I don't know if it is anymore.
