Chess & Jazz Berlin Vol.15

Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

Great lineup for our October edition of Chess & Jazz Berlin! Wanja Slavin - alto sax Morten Larsen - double bass Clemens Lotz - drums Due to the Corona restrictions, the amount of tables inside is very limited! So we recommend you to come early in case you want to listen to the music from inside. An entry control will check if there is still enough seats available. There will be no standing allowed inside and outside the venue, which means that you can only stay if you have a seat. Also, please bring your mask! It is allowed to sit at the table without a mask but you will have to wear it while moving inside the room. Live-Jazz this time a bit earlier from 8 to 10 pm! 19:00 Chess 20:00 +Jazz --------------------------------- „Thelonious Monk is probably best reflected in the chess world, by Michael Adams, while Magnus Carlsen is more like Tony Williams – a prodigy and trendsetter.“ – Levon Aronian (#6 FIDE chess ranking) It is easy to compare chess and jazz as they both require similar abilities, such as creativity, adaptability, a good understanding of space and structure, decisiveness, great knowledge of the past, passion and focus. Chess & Jazz Berlin finally joins together what belongs together in a monthly event at Transit Bar/Restaurant on Schlesische Straße in Kreuzberg. All you have to do is drop by, play a nice game of chess and listen to great live jazz! There will be 10 chess sets for everyone to use and you can always bring your own board and pieces to make sure you are not lacking a set. See you there!
