More and more young people are also discovering this music for themselves. This gave jazz drummer and HfM-SAAR professor Oliver Strauch the idea of initiating a festival for the greater SaarLorLux region that presents contemporary jazz by world stars and up-and-coming talents, thus bringing international jazz to the region.<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a7f51f468140&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a7f51f468140\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/E74127EB-076B-44F6-B425-0C7DABA6D81C-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-772\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/E74127EB-076B-44F6-B425-0C7DABA6D81C-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/E74127EB-076B-44F6-B425-0C7DABA6D81C-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/E74127EB-076B-44F6-B425-0C7DABA6D81C-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/E74127EB-076B-44F6-B425-0C7DABA6D81C-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/E74127EB-076B-44F6-B425-0C7DABA6D81C-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:clamp(2.795rem, 2.795rem + ((1vw - 0.2rem) * 4.086), 5.4rem);\">fill in is 100 percent jazz<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The festival exclusively presents jazz music.

In cooperation with the GIU, the festival started in AVENUE in the neighbourhood at the Eurobahnhof. Conceived as a street festival, AVENUE was intended to be a low-threshold offer for the region and combine the best jazz free of charge with a delicious street food offer and market stalls for adults and a children&#8217;s programme. The format was enthusiastically received and will be continued next year. It will be held again on two days in spring.<br>Translated with DeepL.com (free version)    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As in 2023 and 2024, the festival itself began the evening before on St. Johanner Markt. Several free concerts by young jazz musicians and bands from the HfM SAAR in the bars, pubs and restaurants transformed the market into the city&#8217;s living room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a7f51f46ab7e&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a7f51f46ab7e\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/9DBF2D6E-8830-419A-BAD5-D58B7E2F8088-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/9DBF2D6E-8830-419A-BAD5-D58B7E2F8088-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/9DBF2D6E-8830-419A-BAD5-D58B7E2F8088-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/9DBF2D6E-8830-419A-BAD5-D58B7E2F8088-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/9DBF2D6E-8830-419A-BAD5-D58B7E2F8088-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/fillin-festival.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/9DBF2D6E-8830-419A-BAD5-D58B7E2F8088-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Info fill in is 100 percent jazz The festival exclusively presents jazz music.
