Studying at Codarts does not only take place at school but also on national and international stages. From Rotterdam pop venues to concert halls and from the North Sea Jazz Festival to our own festivals in the city.
Brand New Jazz Festival
At the Maaspodium, talented jazz students from Codarts came together on May 16th and 17th. With the Rotterdam skyline as a backdrop, students showcased their own work with great creativity and virtuosity. The audience enjoyed the diversity of music styles, ranging from electronic jazz to fusion and from bebop to innovative cross-overs. The festival provided an unforgettable experience, with each artist bringing their unique style to the stage. The aftermovie takes you back to the beautiful moments of the festival! We can't wait for the next edition in 2024!
Erasmus Jazz Prize
Each year, Codarts Jazz presents the prestigious Erasmus Jazz Prize. The event for up-and-coming jazz talent. Musicians do their utmost best to reach their full potential. They challenge themselves, seek out the boundaries of music and cross them.
