High priority jazz promotion

With its three-year support programme, Pro Helvetia fosters selected young Swiss jazz bands that have already gained transregional acclaim, have undertaken international concert tours, and whose goal it is to enhance their presence on the international scene. The programme includes financial contributions towards tours, coaching offers and assistance in publicity matters.

Call for applications 2017-2019 is now open (see document in German). Deadline for submission: September 1, 2016.
