Trumpetist

New Orleans is widely regarded as the birthplace of jazz. In the late 19th century, numerous brass bands sprang up all over the city. With trumpets and trombones, clarinets, saxophones, sousaphones, and banjos, they marched as “second line” ensembles in parades and funerals, shaping the city’s sound – a distinctive blend of musical styles that combines European marches with African rhythms. The Swiss quintet Dixie-Ramblers, which has performed in New Orleans and aboard the legendary Mississippi paddle steamer Natchez, brings this fascinating cultural melting pot to Lucerne. It performs concerts on Kapellplatz and Kornmarkt and also makes its way through the Old Town streets as a marching band.
