‘4th Stream Festival’

For some years now, Bozar has put together programme of edgy jazz. Listen and watch as local and international artists tease and cross the boundaries of jazz, fusing the genre with other styles, from nu jazz through electro, funk, hip-hop, nouvelle vague, free jazz, spoken word and ambient to psychedelic or minimalist music. You name it, we’ve included it. Why ‘4th Stream’? If classical music is first stream and jazz second, then, according to composer Gunter Schuller, anything which combines, distorts and extends the two genres is 'third stream'. At Bozar, however, we're going even a step further. At 4th Stream promises traces of every musical genre.​​​​​​​
