HfMT Jazz @ Elbjazz

The content on this page was translated automatically.

The new “Hamburg Stage” at the Blohm+Voss site replaces the Elbjazz Festival’s former “Young Talent Stage.” The stage showcases the diversity of Hamburg’s jazz scene and offers a platform at ELBJAZZ for both up-and-coming talents and established artists.
We are thrilled to bring this new stage to life for the first time this year at the festival grounds with an extraordinary program featuring our big band, four student bands, special guests, and in cooperation with the Jazzbüro Hamburg!

4:30 PM: The Trombonist Tom Wendler and his Quintet, joined at ELBJAZZ by guitarist Sven Kerschek, will captivate the audience with stylistic openness and rousing ensemble playing.

11:00 PM: Heartholder, the project by bassist and singer Lennart Meyer, together with Brazilian drum legend Kiko Freitas, blends modern art-pop influences with Brazil’s rich musical culture at ELBJAZZ, bringing Elbjazz 2026 to a close with a late-night concert.
