The Covid-19-related health emergency has hit the City and Province of Bergamo hard.
The Italian jazz world mobilized to give support to Bergamo Jazz Festival and all the people of Bergamo: many were the musicians and jazz festivals, gathered under the I-Jazz association, who virtually huddled with Bergamo Jazz in February, March and April 2020 to promote the initiative “Italian jazz for Bergamo – #jazz4bergamo,” a campaign in favor of the Papa Giovanni XXIII Hospital and the City. Through the artists’ contributions, great support for fundraising promoted by the non-profit Cesvi Foundation.
The music never stopped: musical contributions, streaming concerts, video-messages from all over Italy and the world to express closeness and solidarity.
Symbol of the campaign the streaming concert of Noa and Gil Dor.
