The Jazz Voyeur Festival this year takes a multidisciplinary character with a number of really interesting side events. One is this guided tour which will take us to discover places of the historical center of Palma where jazz acquires its greatest expression.
The starting point is the Casal Solleric, a manor house built in the mid eighteenth century which functions since 1985 as Exhibition and Documentation Centre of Contemporary Art. Its elegant Baroque courtyard, large and magnificent stone floor, serves also sometimes as a concert scenario.
The route continues with a visit to the Teatre Principal, emblematic in the cultural life of Palma. This building, with a neo-Renaissance facade and renovated in 2007, was built in the nineteenth century on the site occupied by the House of Comedy since 1662. It is one of the main reference points of performing arts in Mallorca, staging some of the great concerts programmed by the Jazz Voyeur Festival over its nine editions.
Other unavoidable corners for jazz lovers, that will also be visited, are the Jazz Voyeur Club and the Blue Jazz Club, where you can hear live music every night. Finally, the Library Bonaire, which dedicates a section to the world of jazz with the latest publications and recordings.
Tours are conducted by official guides and an expert of jazz music. They are made in four languages, Catalan, Spanish, English and German.
