Manacor Jazz Festival 2026 programme<\/h2>\n

\"Manacor<\/p>\n

Saturday, 19th September<\/h3>\n

8:00 pm. Toni Saigi Quartet<\/strong><\/p>\n

The opening performance will feature Toni Saigi on piano, Jaume Llombart on guitar, Marc Cuevas on double bass and Andreu Pitarch on drums.<\/p>\n

The group draws on the tradition of hard bop<\/strong> while opening its sound to contemporary musical languages, with original compositions and improvisation as two of the main elements of its approach.<\/p>\n

9:30 pm. Anggie Obin Quartet<\/strong><\/p>\n

Next on stage will be Anggie Obin Quartet, featuring Anggie Obin on flute, Gorka Ben\u00edtez on tenor saxophone and flute, Horacio Fumero on double bass and David Xirgu on drums.<\/p>\n

The group offers a contemporary jazz sound incorporating influences from Latin American music, with improvisation and musical dialogue playing a central role.<\/p>\n

Saturday, 26th September: K12 and Irene Reig Quartet<\/h2>\n

The second evening will once again take place at Pla\u00e7a del Rector Rub\u00ed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

8:00 pm. K12<\/strong><\/p>\n

K12 is formed by Gori Matas on piano and keyboards, Marko Lohikari on double bass and Teo Salv\u00e0 on drums.<\/p>\n

The trio will present a repertoire of original compositions in which jazz coexists with influences from pop, classical and contemporary music.<\/p>\n

9:30 pm. Irene Reig Quartet<\/strong><\/p>\n

The evening will continue with Irene Reig Quartet<\/strong>, one of the standout groups on the current Catalan jazz scene.<\/p>\n

Irene Reig will perform on saxophone, accompanied by Will Barry on piano, Pau Sala on double bass and Andreu Pitarch on drums.<\/p>\n

Their music combines hard bop roots with original compositions, contemporary arrangements and a strong emphasis on improvisation.<\/p>\n

Jorge Rossy to headline the closing event at the Auditori de Manacor<\/h2>\n

The main new feature of the third edition will arrive on Sunday, 27th September<\/strong>, when the festival leaves Pla\u00e7a del Rector Rub\u00ed and moves to the Auditori de Manacor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The evening will bring together Jorge Rossy Vibes Quartet<\/strong> and the Voodoo Children Orchestra<\/strong>, conducted by Toni Vaquer.<\/p>\n

Jorge Rossy Vibes Quartet features Jorge Rossy on vibraphone and marimba, Milena Casado on trumpet, Robert Landfermann on double bass and Cornelia Nilsson on drums.<\/p>\n

Rossy is one of Spain’s most internationally recognised jazz musicians. Before developing his work as a vibraphonist and marimba player, he built an extensive career as a drummer, appearing on more than 180 recordings as a collaborator and working with musicians including Brad Mehldau, Joshua Redman, Wayne Shorter, Charlie Haden and Joe Lovano.<\/p>\n

Milena Casado, Cornelia Nilsson and Robert Landfermann<\/h2>\n

The quartet also brings together musicians from different international jazz scenes.<\/p>\n

Spanish trumpeter, composer and producer Milena Casado<\/strong>, based in New York, has worked with musicians including Terri Lyne Carrington, Kris Davis, Kenny Werner and Jorge Rossy himself.<\/p>\n

Swedish drummer Cornelia Nilsson<\/strong> is part of the current Scandinavian jazz scene and received the Ben Webster Prize in 2024.<\/p>\n

The line-up is completed by German double bassist Robert Landfermann<\/strong>, a prominent figure on the European creative jazz scene.<\/p>\n

Toni Vaquer’s Voodoo Children Orchestra<\/h2>\n

The second part of the closing event will feature the Voodoo Children Orchestra<\/strong>, conducted by Mallorcan composer, arranger and pianist Toni Vaquer.<\/p>\n

Jorge Rossy, Milena Casado, Cornelia Nilsson and Robert Landfermann will also join the performance as guest musicians.<\/p>\n

Vaquer trained at the Conservatori del Liceu and later at Berklee College of Music, where he studied composition and arranging. Since 2018, he has taught in the Jazz and Modern Music Department at the Conservatori Superior del Liceu.<\/p>\n

Voodoo Children Orchestra is his largest-scale project, a group of around fifty musicians<\/strong> that starts from the concept of a big band and expands it with instruments from classical music and different folk traditions.<\/p>\n

The project seeks to blur the boundaries between genres, turning the orchestra into a space for compositional experimentation and a meeting point for new generations of Mallorcan musicians.<\/p>\n

Its most recent work, Kindness Disarms<\/em>, brings together compositions created during the pandemic years and reflects the project’s musical evolution.<\/p>\n

A jazz festival celebrating its third edition in Manacor<\/h2>\n

The Jazz Festival reaches its third edition in 2026 with the aim of continuing to establish itself within Manacor’s cultural programme.<\/p>\n

The format maintains the intimacy of the concerts at Pla\u00e7a del Rector Rub\u00ed, while this year adding a larger-scale closing event at the Auditori.<\/p>\n

The organisers also highlight the collaboration between the Town Council and the Associaci\u00f3 Musical i Cultural s’Escat as one of the pillars of a project designed to bring jazz to a broad audience and connect the local music scene with nationally and internationally recognised performers.<\/p>\n
