About Borgo in Jazz
The jazz that inhabits the villages of Molise
Borgo in Jazz is a widespread festival that, every summer, ignites the historic centres of Molise with music. Founded in 2014 by the young Molise musician Nicola Concettini along with a group of local professionals, the event combines the enhancement of villages with the promotion of jazz and contemporary art.
A network of villages
The festival involves a network of municipalities in the province of Campobasso and surrounding areas — including Campobasso, Casacalenda, Gambatesa, Morcone, Pietracupa, Ripalimosani, Spinete, and Baranello. The latter, known as the town of Giuseppe Barone, from the monumental fountain dedicated to the goddess Ceres to the masterpieces in the Civic Museum, is one of the most evocative stops of the festival.
Music and territory
Each concert is also an invitation to discover the village hosting it: squares, open spaces, and historic buildings become intimate stages where you can listen to big names in national and international jazz, often accompanied by local food and wine offerings. A model of cultural tourism that has made Borgo in Jazz one of the most recognizable events of the Molise musical summer.
