The story follows the girl Yasmin, who must choose whether to go with her mother on a yoga retreat or join her father and his big band on tour. Of course, she chooses the latter.
On Yasmin’s holiday school schedule, there is jazz, rock and roll, bossa nova, and more, all performed by the massive Odense Jazz Orchestra and a huge children’s choir from Kolding, conducted by Anders Møller. Together, they take everyone on a musical journey through the jazz landscape, teaching about exciting instruments and the joy of creating music. Come and give yourself—and the children—an unforgettable experience in the spirit of music.
Line-up:
Conductor: Torben Sminge

About the project
This is an educational project for children in 4th–6th grade.
The combination of high artistic quality and a commitment to taking responsibility for the local environment and community forms the platform for creating a new, sustainable educational initiative. For many years, Odense Jazz Orchestra has focused on actively bringing art and culture to children and youth, recognizing the importance of producing high-quality, rhythmically engaging music with an educational perspective. The project also aims to connect culture with learning, providing something meaningful for the community that benefits everyone in a busy and stressful everyday life.
For several years, Odense Jazz Orchestra has used a Kahoot-based project as the centerpiece of its educational work. In this concert, Kahoot focuses on the small challenges of everyday life and on the girl JAZZmin, who learns all about big band music, its musicians, and instruments.
