Purpose of SPIJLF
The Sena Performers International Jazz Laureate Festival is a collaboration with Dutch Performers House (Sena), World Jazz Network and Amersfoort World Jazz Festival. During the Amersfoort World Jazz Festival, multiple slots are available for “Endorsed Exceptional Talents” who are nominated by an international partner from the World Jazz Network to perform at SPIJLF. Purpose of these talent showcases is to encourage all partners to welcome at least one talent back to perform at their festival or venue in their home country: promoting talent exchange and mobility among jazz artists. By positioning ourselves as a pivot in the Dutch jazz landscape, we strengthen the jazz infrastructure on Dutch soil and abroad.
