6 – 7th September 2019 - Dunajská Streda - Slovakia
The aim of the 12th volume of the Are you FREE? festival, as well as its previous volumes, is the introduction of improvised music and contemporary art to its audience. In Slovakia, free jazz and the other forms of improvised music have still not gained their well-deserved space, however, the interest in the progressive forms of music have been rising lately. We invite the best interprets of the genre but we also tend to pay respect to other widely acknowledged musicians, too – e.g. by opening the range of our interest to world music this year. Our festival with its free atmosphere serves as a forum for both musicians and their audience.
