The Mas i Mas Group\u2019s premises at the time \u2013 the Jamboree, La Cova del Drac-Jazzroom, La Bo\u00eete and the Moog \u2013 hosted nearly all the 70 concerts scheduled in this first festival. However, the event had a surprise in store for fans: for the first time in its history, a jazz session was held at the Gran Teatre del Liceu. A group led by trumpeter Randy Brecker and saxophonist Bill Evans was the first jazz band to set foot on stage at the opera house in La Rambla. A band led by Jerry Gonz\u00e1lez closed the first festival at the Vict\u00f2ria Theatre.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

Musicians like Robert Glaspert, Antonio Hart, Las Migas and DJ \u00d3scar Mulero were on the bill in 2004. The following year, the festival made the leap to the Palau de la M\u00fasica Catalana, with Raynald Colom, Llibert Fortuny, Pepe Habichuela and the Cuban Ibrahim Ferrer. In 2006, it was the turn of McCoy Tyner, Esperanza Spalding and a brand-new duo, Mayte Mart\u00edn and Omara Portundo, at the Palau and a coproduction with the Enderrock group, \u201cDioptria 2.0\u201d, to pay tribute to Pau Riba in the big hall at the Auditori.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2c55a02 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"2c55a02\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-8b81062 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"8b81062\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-daf8b59 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"daf8b59\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1b74709 ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"1b74709\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7ebdbb7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7ebdbb7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">2007-2009<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5937f2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f5937f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">From Shorter to Peret and from the Grec to La Pedrera<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c200ba elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5c200ba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The 2007 festival enjoyed the presence of a jazz legend, Wayne Shorter, who offered a performance with his famous quartet at the Auditori, the same stage where Peret celebrated the 50th anniversary of the birth of Catalan rumba. Apart from a significant increase in Cuban music (Manolito Simonet y su Trabuco, NG La Banda, etc.), that year Perico Sambeat presented his big band at the Grec Theatre. The historic amphitheatre at Montju\u00efc was one of the star venues in 2008, hosting two sessions of live music a day, with artists as diverse as Giula Valle, Astrio, Nevoa, Miquel Gil and so on. Apart from the Grec, another distinctive feature of this year was the consolidation of the classical music sessions, with the \u201c30 Minutes of Music\u201d cycle at La

The other significant new feature was the recovery of the orchestral piece Nova Catal\u00f2nia, by the composer Joan Man\u00e9n. In 2012, the pop group Level 42 opened the festival at the Palau de la M\u00fasica. That year at the Apolo, tribute was paid to Miles Davis by an ad-hoc big band with special guests including Andrea Motis and Carles Benavent.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-001720e elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"001720e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c1fd49d elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"c1fd49d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;background_motion_fx_motion_fx_scrolling&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;background_motion_fx_scale_effect&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;background_motion_fx_scale_direction&quot;:&quot;in-out-in&quot;,&quot;background_motion_fx_scale_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:1,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;background_motion_fx_scale_range&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:{&quot;start&quot;:0,&quot;end&quot;:52}},&quot;background_motion_fx_devices&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;mobile&quot;]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3acb06b elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"3acb06b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8473eef ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"8473eef\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_motion_fx_scrolling&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_devices&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;mobile&quot;]}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-12b1235 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"12b1235\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">2013-2015<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9b85da1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9b85da1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">From El Born to the<br>Reial Cercle Art\u00edstic<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f2cf18 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4f2cf18\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Soul, featuring Imany and Sara Pi, was one of the outstanding genres of the tenth-anniversary edition of the festival.
