You never know in advance when something will take place for the last time. Unfortunately, this year’s festival was the last one on the island of Hiddensee. As FOH Engineer I was part of the festival team since 2010 and had a wonderful time working with those fantastic musicians! I also joined the festival two times myself, performing my own compositions back in 2015 and 2016. Price increases, logistics, and the loss of funding have made it impossible for us to continue holding the festival on the island. But it’s not all over! Starting next year, we will be moving to Klasdorf, and the festival will be renamed UMRANGIERT. Here are the artists who performed on the last JAZZ UND MEHR FESTIVAL: Zola Mennenöh, Berit Jung, Martina Gebhardt, Hanam, Salomea, Annette Wizisla & Band, Hallo Julia!, Kerstin Brokate, Peter Kuhz, Caminos Unemundos, Flamink, Rural Tableau, 2Gegen3, Freunde des vollen Mondes…
