MARBELLA INTERNATIONAL JAZZ FESTIVAL
The story of the Marbella International
Jazz Festival is fascinating, with the significant, dramatic success of the
previous years being brought to a shuddering halt with the somewhat unexpected
imprisonment of the City’s Mayor and many City Councilors.
The affair is widely-reported in the media,
and has obviously had a huge impact on Marbella’s civic life.
The charges and trials are ongoing, but the
hope is that the new election administration will, as part of the
rehabilitation of the reputation of this wonderful City, reinstate the Jazz
Festival.
We hope that the first step will be to
honour the financial debts incurred by the City of Marbella. There is still, 17
months later, significant sums of money owed to artists, management and
suppliers.
