The '22nd
Kobe Jazz Street,' which will steep the entire city of Kobe in Jazz, was
held on October 11-12.
This event is to celebrate the City of Kobe, where
Ichiro Ida, a banjo player, formed a jazz band in 1923, making
Kobe the 'birthplace of Japanese jazz.'
People can listen to jazz 'any time' and 'any place'.
For the 80th
anniversary of the birth of Jazz in Japan, this year will feature a
program consisting
of the numbers that have been popular since
the Taisho
period (1912-1926) and that have some ties to Kobe.
