NOVI SAD OLD GOLD JAZZ FESTIVAL 2001 - Vesna Kaćanski, Program Editor

 
NOVI SAD DAYS OF JAZZ was and in our memory still is a festival worth mentioning within the cultural space of a country we've lived in. Partly gathering again the team that gave to Novi Sad this famous manifestation back in 1979., we wonted to bring it back from oblivion. Judging by those who performed at NOVI SAD DAYS OF JAZZ , this festival was often mentioned inside, as well as outside of our administrative borders. It was good!
Our main intention was to advance JAZZTIMEFEST, who took place in November 1997 and 1998 at the Cultural Center of Novi Sad, into the NOVI SAD JAZZ FESTIVAL. And we did it!

NOVI SAD JAZZ FESTIVAL 1999 belonged mainly to Novi Sad, but on the other hand it also belonged to Belgrade, Niš, Pančevo, Valjevo, Čačak… It was an international event. A fresh start.
At that time besides the existing Festival Novi Sad lacked a proper Jazz scene, Jazz Club and Fun Club but our ambitions were not corresponding to our financial possibilities.
We've waited for a chance and made some improvements as soon as we could!

In year 2000 NOVI SAD JAZZ FESTIVAL became NOVI SAD OLD GOLD JAZZ FESTIVAL. Except the Executive Board and the Town Council of Novi Sad , decisive support came from BEČEJ BREWERY. Together with that, came many other different but significant ones. On behalf of all jazzers we want to use this opportunity to express our deepest gratitude to them! Surly we won't forget that! 

NOVI SAD OLD GOLD JAZZ FESTIVAL has primarily the local character but is an international event. Cultural Center of Novi Sad became pretty tight! We wanted the Festival to be even better! We choose success and the support wasn't missing!

Decisive but expected support to NOVI SAD OLD GOLD JAZZ FESTIVAL came from Novi Sad Town Council. Festival remained Old Gold thanks to BEČEJ BREWERY, and Festival was also supported by County Ministry of Education and Culture, and without Republic of Serbia Ministry of Culture people of Novi Sad, Belgrade and Niš wouldn't be able to see Jimmy Cobb. Remember…Miles Davises drummer?!
Comune di Modene, Goethe Institute and Easteuropean Stability Pact, French Cultural Center, U.S Embassy…

We'll also need the future support. Our ambitions are not yet fulfilled!

WELCOME!
