Impression of Jakobidult 2011
Last Saturday, the Jakobidult (Sommerdult) on Mariahilfplatz with the "summer (at night) fixed" started. Until 08/05/2012 Dultgäste are invited join daily 10-22 clock for strolling, shopping, and spectator. The program ranges from presentations on tours to music, singing and dancing. The Jakobidult is in addition to the May Dult (Frühjahrsdult) and Kirchweihdult (Herbstdult) each one of the 9-day Dulten Munich, which take place all at Mariahilfplatz. About 300,000 people visit each year, the three Auer Dulten.
A trip to the Jakobidult is particularly worthwhile on Tuesday, 31.07.2012, on the last day of school before summer vacation, which is also the family day at the Jakobidult. The Showmen offer rides in their stores that day at a reduced price and hope to be able to attract as many young visitors to the Dult. But for all adults is Jakobidult like every year, an experience that you should take in any case, for a summer in Munich without a visitor at the Auer Dulten is no real summer. That would be like without the Oktoberfest in October! (Yes, we are aware that the Oktoberfest takes place mainly in September.) Speaking of which, in October 2012 is the Auer Dult triathlon in the last round, because at 20.10. the Herbstdult opened. Schonmal diary!
The name "Dult" has its original meaning in the way a church festival. During a feast was in honor of a saint by the Church mostly built up stalls to deliver goods. Over time the word changed its meaning, however slowly. From the church festival increasingly became a carnival who enjoyed spectacular attractions with its increasing popularity among the population. The Jakobidult was first mentioned in 1310, namely in the statute book of the city of Munich. She was back in Anger, instead of today's St. James Square. Hence the name "Jakobidult".
Come and visit Jakobidult during the period from 28.07. until 05.08.2012 at Mariahilfplatz in Munich.

Free and very good: Jazz by Special Quartet
When I was younger (yeah, I'm now at an age where I've used such formulations # musicmondayernsthaft completely, without even realizing it), I always looked after the "great art", it always had the best rock album of all time, the his best jazz album of all time, best classical album of all time. Underneath it was simply not in my claims. Disillusioned Accordingly, you then at some point: At some point, you know just his version of the best rock, jazz and classical albums, and you are on a search and decide for yourself that you have the "best album of all time" has long since found. Does that mean you can stop listening to new music, because you've already heard it all before and since has enabled music stand enhancement is not in the closet? Isteskuatsch of course, there's so much to discover, even if nothing is "unique" new or substantially connected. Sometimes the sound implementation of cherished traditions is more than enough., A 'little masterpiece', so to speak.
A good example of such a 'small masterpiece' is the debut album "Namouche" of Spanish Jazz Quartet Special Quartet. Without claiming the wheel (of jazz) reinvented to have to play the four musicians of the main cast Narciso González, Javier Alcantara, Pablo Romero and Pepin Muñoz and their guests Alexis Cuadrado , Perico Sambeat and Hugo Alves a good, relaxed and inspired urban jazz with unmistakable bonds of the great jazz bands of the 1960s by John Coltrane, Miles Davis and Charles Mingus.
The ten compositions seem to quote sometimes one or two classical pieces (plugged in "concept" not a bit of Coltrane's "Naima" theme?), Do it, but the entertainment factor of the album does not stop, because "Namouche" (the name of the studio where the pictures were taken) is quite independent enough and also a good example of how high-class jazz does not necessarily need big names in the United States must come and must be included in the 1960's. Sure, all this new right is not what you'll hear there, but it's still a lot of fun. God knows I've heard a lot weaker, duller commercial jazz albums with big names. The contrast here is really good, entertaining and a hint of jazz friends and supporters. And if the boys should ever play in the area, I would not hesitate to look at me.
