Dive into the world of german jazz!
What is jazz? How did this music come to Germany? Why did the Nazis see jazz as a danger? And how did jazz achieve its great breakthrough? For the film JAZZFIEBER | THE STORY OF GERMAN JAZZ, Reinhard Kungel and his team went in search of clues and accompanied the film composer Peter Thomas and the jazz legends Rolf Kühn, Max Greger, Hugo Strasser, Paul Kuhn and Coco Schumann during their lifetime.
I loved this film. It took me on a journey back in time to the Germany of my parents. Although the country was destroyed, this film, its music, the performances of these primal stones of jazz radiate an uncanny energy and joie de vivre. The film is a piece of contemporary history – be sure to watch it.
