After five decades on the stage, Maria del Mar Bonet makes her debut the Voll-Damm International Jazz Festival with a project that has deep roots in jazz history, and which can be summarized in a single song: Jim, released in 1979 as a tribute to Billie Holiday.

The Mallorcan singer has also adopted George Gershwin and other jazz standards into her repertoire, and now she offers a very special recital, leading the Big Band Begues.
