Unthinkable: a celebration without music or exchange between the continents without culture!

In the middle of the 125th anniversary celebrations, the OAV, together with the Hamburg-based Asia Bridge Foundation, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary, is taking to the musical stage.

We are delighted to present the horse-headed violinist Jigjiddorj Nanzaddorj, whom we have invited from Mongolia for a concert in the JazzHall Hamburg.

The renowned musician and his three-piece ensemble on piano, bass and drums stand for an exciting fusion of traditional Mongolian music with the improvisational spirit of jazz.

This extraordinary evening presents a musical journey that combines the deeply rooted tradition of Mongolian music with the boundless creativity of jazz.

The event ends with drinks in the JazzHall park - with a view of the Outer Alster and inspired conversations.

As a special guest we welcome Mandukhai Tugstogtokh, the founder of the JazzLab NGO. In a short lecture, she will provide insights into the fascinating development of jazz in Mongolia, ranging from traditional influences to modern experiments.

OAV Chairman Dr. Arnd Nenstiel and representatives of the Hamburg-based Asien-Brücke Foundation will welcome the guests and provide examples of their respective activities in Mongolia.
