Syncopated Sisters:  A new swing music residency for female musicians

We are very exited to launch a new event: Syncopated Sisters - a residency for female/FLINTA* musicians only which will take place from March 9-12, 2023 in Berlin.
 
The event aims to connect female musicians within the Jazz and Swing community in Europe and includes a band workshop. In the band workshop the participants will play compositions and arrangements by Mary Lou Williams (1910-1981). It will be led by the wonderful bandleader and trumpet player Marie-Anne Standaert from Belgium. 
 
The afternoon program is also open for non-musicians that are interested in exchange about female empowerment in the Swing community. The afternoon program will give space to feminist perspectives, empowerment, exchange and for visions for the future, and of course concerts and jam sessions! 
 
If you're interested we recommend you not wait! application are closing on Jan. 10, 2023. More information and link to registration here syncopation.de/syncopated-sisters or Facebook Event.

THIS WAS AYS?! – Enjoy this little glimpse into 3 days of joy, music, dance madness, discussions, ideas, traditions, innovations, familiar and surprising situations. It was a great collective effort and at the time seemed like a big crazy idea. We can’t wait to do it again next year! Thank you to all the people involved.
