Bremen, 20.11.2012 Jazzahead! 2013 Sets Sails Save the Date: 25 1 Bremen, 20.11.2012 jazzahead! 2013 sets sails Save the date: 25 - 28 April 2013 jazzahead! 2013 enters the next round! Due to the rising visitor and exhibitor numbers, and in response to many requests by the participants, the international trade show will now begin on Thursday already – half a day earlier than in the past years. From Thursday, April 25 th , until Sunday, April 28 th , Bremen will be a jazz metropolis with lots of music and a diverse program. “jazzahead! is like a weekend in New York – you’re tired but energetically charged“, says jazz journalist Karsten Mützelfeldt. “There’s no other place where you can meet people as clustered as here. For me, this is the most important jazz trade show!” Patron of jazzahead! 2013 is Bernd Neumann, Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media. “I’m sure the coming edition of jazzahead! will be yet another great success”, Bernd Neumann writes in a letter to the Exhibition Center Bremen. “I am especially delighted that Israel will be this year’s partner country. By choosing Israel, the organizers send an important signal for the German-Israeli cultural exchange.” Shalom Israel! After Spain and Turkey, Israel will b e jazzahead!’s partner country in 2013 and will be the central focus of the partner country program which lasts several weeks and spans a variety of cultural disciplines. The country’s population hails from over 100 countries on five continents and holds an extraordinary diversity of cultural influences. Besides its close-knit music scene, the country offers a very dynamic cosmopolitan cultural environment. “We are excited to present parts of Israel’s rich and fascinating culture during jazzahead!. Israel is a modern, attractive country whose cultural diversity receives too little attention”, say Uli Beckerhoff and Peter Schulze, the artistic directors of jazzahead!. The partner country program is at this point still being finalized, but one can already look forward to music, literature, art and design made in Israel ! Avishai Cohen live in concert! One highlight of the partner country program is the gala concert of the internationally acclaimed bassist and composer Avishai Cohen at Bremen’s concert hall “Glocke” on Friday, April 26 th , 2013 at 8 PM. Cohen leads a new generation of Israeli musicians who – despite having “made it” in New York – maintain a tight bond to Israel and its lively scene. As artistic director of the Red Sea Jazz Festival from 2009 until 2011, he substantially increased the number of performances by Israeli artists. 32 Cohen (born in 1970) was an integral band member of Danilo Perez and Chick Corea until 2003. In 2001, he founded the “International Vamp Band” with musicians from all over the world.

Broadcasting and advertising Watching TV remains a favourite pastime, but the consumer today is not restricted to a small number of public broadcasters with some local ad-funded private channels. Streaming content of choice and at the time desired has become the preference for many viewers, reducing the time spent watching the traditional broadcasters. RTL Group is one of the traditional TV broadcasters (actually largest in Europe operating in eight countries) that is managing declining ad revenue from traditional TV (still by far the most important advertising tool) to monetarizing streaming (of which it is already one of Europe’s largest).
