Abstract
Festivals have an important – if undervalued – position in Europe’s cultural ecology, with their dynamic and synergetic relationship to spaces and cultural sites. Within this context, jazz and improvised music festivals provide a distinctive lens through which to explore key issues in heritage research, drawing on music’s unique and complex relationship to concepts of high and low culture, tradition, innovation, authenticity and (non)-European identity.
This chapter explores the findings from the JPI-Heritage+ project CHIME and makes recommendations for future research into heritage planning.
