222 – festival (2020)

as part of my bachelors exam i wanted to organize a festival. the idea was 2 days (9. and 10.03.2020), 2 cities (berlin and köln) and 2 generations of jazz musicians, combining working bands w. heroes of mine, writing new music for new bands as well as one of monks music, all at my musical home, the loft koeln.
