NJP 2025 - Soirée Jazz Manouche

Nancy Jazz Pulsations returns from October 4 to 18, 2025, true to its DNA of celebration, encounters and artistic curiosity. This year, the festival slips into the graphic lines and vibrant colors of Art Deco, to mark the centenary of this emblematic artistic movement.

First performance:
The Pansch Weiss & Jimmy Hoffmann Quartet brings together two virtuoso gypsy musicians from Lorraine, Pansch Weiss and Jimmy Hoffmann. Their music, inspired by the masters of the genre such as Django Reinhardt, is enriched by renowned rhythm player Benji Winterstein and experienced double bassist Thierry Chanteloup. Together, they offer a rich, virtuosic Manouche sound that blends tradition and modernity.
