The new-look 2014 Standard Bank Joy of Jazz will take place this year,
and for the next five years, at the Sandton Convention Centre and on
a new date - from September 25 to 27. The new move allows the festi-
val to continue its spectacular growth and also means that, for the first
time, audiences will be able to buy a full festival pass in line with jazz
festivals around the globe.
The move from Newtown to Sandton has been necessitated thanks to
the festival’s overwhelming and continuing popularity with Newtown
having reached its full capacity and unable to expand to accommodate
the growing audience numbers.

In its first year at the Sandton Convention centre the festival will run
over four stages – The Dinaledi, Mbira, Conga, and newly named Dipha-
la (which replaces the Bassline stage). In addition, extensive corporate
hospitality options will be now be available given the extra venue ca-
pacity.
The decision to change the date was made as weather was a contri-
buting factor and pushing the festival out by a month brings it into the
beginning of summer. It also now means that the festival takes place
during Heritage month celebrations.
The first Joy of Jazz took place at the State Theatre in Pretoria in
1997 and moved to the Newtown precinct in the Johannesburg CBD
in 2000 when 1 800 people took part. A record audience of 24 178
attended Standard Bank Joy of Jazz in 2013.

Q U O T E S
EVENT PRODUCER PETER
TLADI OF T-MUSICMAN:
“The move to a new venue later in the
year heralds a new era for Standard
Bank Joy of Jazz. We were determined
to bring audiences a star-studded line-
up that appeals to all tastes thanks to a
range of diverse styles. The powerhouse
artists performing this year are all highly
respected, heavyweight musicians,
whether newcomers or those who are
icons of the global jazz scene.”
HAZEL CHIMHANDAMBA,
HEAD OF GROUP
SPONSORSHIPS AT
STANDARD BANK:
“The continuing growth of this world-class
music festival is a cause for celebration
and a tribute to the city. Standard Bank
Joy of Jazz will continue to present top-
flight musicians, not only to the people of
Johannesburg but visitors from around
the country, Africa and the globe.”
MINISTER OF ARTS
AND CULTURE PAUL
MASHATILE
“Thanks to the ability to grow the festival,
Standard Bank Joy of Jazz will contribute
more to the economic growth of both
the country and the Gauteng province
and boost economic tourism by attrac-
ting a higher influx of domestic, African
and international travellers.”
EXECUTIVE MAYOR
OF JOHANNESBURG
PARKS TAU:
“The festival is moving north but it is still
firmly part of the City of Johannesburg.
It was held in the CBD for 16 years and
put Newtown on the entertainment
map. However, it grew too large for the
available infrastructure hence the move.
It will continue to promote Johannes-
burg as a world class city and bring
visitors to our city.”
EVENT PRODUCER
PETER TLADI OF
T-MUSICMAN EXPLAINS:
“Given the exponential growth of Stan-
dard Bank Joy of Jazz, the Convention
Centre allows us almost unlimited
numbers. We are projecting nearly 30
000 people attending this year and
we will be taking the festival to greater
heights at its new home for the next
five years. The move to the Convention
Centre has multiple benefits. It allows
us to grow, to sell a full festival pass as
well as to improve sound, staging, security
and parking. We are also no longer at
the mercy of the weather.”
The 2014 Standard Bank Joy of Jazz is
produced by T-Musicman and brought
to audiences by Standard Bank in
association with the Department of Arts
& Culture; the City of Joburg, Gauteng
Province and South African Tourism.

Other huge draw cards include Tony-nominated composer and multi-platinum-selling singer Ann Hampton Callaway; Filipino recording artist and cultural trailblazer Charmaine Clamor; New Orleans trumpet- er Christian Scott; Indepen-dent Music Award winner Omar Sosa from Cuba; Italian jazz singer and Grammy nominee Roberta Gamba-rini; Cameroon’s Richard Bona; Dwele from the US and trumpeter and com- poser Tomasz Stanko, regarded as Poland’s most important jazz ambas- sador, who will be performing with some of top young jazz performers from Finland and Denmark. Performers from South Africa include Tutu Puoane, Feya Faku and his quintet; the Mike Rossi Project; Herbie Tsoaeli and Carlos Mombelli, both of whom will be performing with their quartets. A number of Standard Bank Young Artist for Jazz winners are also on the bill including this year’s winner Kyle Shepherd, Gloria Bosman (2000), Kesivan Naidoo (2009), Melanie Scholtz (2010) and Shane Cooper (2013). > Jazz giants from across the globe – including four-time Grammy Award winner Dianne Reeves; National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis and South African musical legends Sibongile Khumalo and Jonas Gwangwa are part of the line-up for this year’s star-studded Standard Bank Joy of Jazz. The new-look 2014 Standard Bank Joy of Jazz will take place at the Sandton Convention Centre from September 25 to 27. M E D I A R E L E A S E
  • 4. 4 S TA N D A R D B A N K J O Y O F J A Z Z 2 0 1 4 M E D I A R E L E A S E Germany’s Wolfgang Diefenbach is the founder and artistic direc- tor of the Hessian State Youth Jazz Orchestra also known as Kicks & Sticks who will be providing a big bandAA sound at this year’s festival. Delfeayo Marsalis will be appearing with acclaimed Uptown Jazz Orchestra (UJO) who play everything from traditional New Orleans music, swing and bebop to modern-day brass band funk. Standard Bank Joy of Jazz’s move to Sandton allows the festival to continue its spectacular growth and also means that, for the first time, audiences will be able to buy a full festival pass all four stages – Dinaledi, Conga, Mbira and Diphala – in line with jazz festivals around the globe. Tickets are on sale at Computicket with a 15% discount for all Standard Bank customers valid until July 31 (terms and conditions apply). A one- day pass costs R750 giving access to 16 acts. A two-day pass is R1250. N E W V E N U E The new-look 2014 Standard Bank Joy of Jazz will take place this year, and for the next five years, at the Sandton Convention Centre and on a new date - from September 25 to 27. The new move allows the festi- val to continue its spectacular growth and also means that, for the first time, audiences will be able to buy a full festival pass in line with jazz festivals around the globe. The move from Newtown to Sandton has been necessitated thanks to the festival’s overwhelming and continuing popularity with Newtown having reached its full capacity and unable to expand to accommodate the growing audience numbers. STANDARD BANK JOY OF JAZZ MOVES TO NEW VENUE AND NEW DATE

In addition, extensive corporate hospitality options will be now be available given the extra venue ca- pacity. The decision to change the date was made as weather was a contri- buting factor and pushing the festival out by a month brings it into the beginning of summer. It also now means that the festival takes place during Heritage month celebrations. The first Joy of Jazz took place at the State Theatre in Pretoria in 1997 and moved to the Newtown precinct in the Johannesburg CBD in 2000 when 1 800 people took part. A record audience of 24 178 attended Standard Bank Joy of Jazz in 2013.
  • 6. 6 S TA N D A R D B A N K J O Y O F J A Z Z 2 0 1 4 Q U O T E S EVENT PRODUCER PETER TLADI OF T-MUSICMAN: “The move to a new venue later in the year heralds a new era for Standard Bank Joy of Jazz. We were determined to bring audiences a star-studded line- up that appeals to all tastes thanks to a range of diverse styles. The powerhouse artists performing this year are all highly respected, heavyweight musicians, whether newcomers or those who are icons of the global jazz scene.” HAZEL CHIMHANDAMBA, HEAD OF GROUP SPONSORSHIPS AT STANDARD BANK: “The continuing growth of this world-class music festival is a cause for celebration and a tribute to the city. Standard Bank Joy of Jazz will continue to present top- flight musicians, not only to the people of Johannesburg but visitors from around the country, Africa and the globe.” MINISTER OF ARTS AND CULTURE PAUL MASHATILE “Thanks to the ability to grow the festival, Standard Bank Joy of Jazz will contribute more to the economic growth of both the country and the Gauteng province and boost economic tourism by attrac- ting a higher influx of domestic, African and international travellers.” EXECUTIVE MAYOR OF JOHANNESBURG PARKS TAU: “The festival is moving north but it is still firmly part of the City of Johannesburg. It was held in the CBD for 16 years and put Newtown on the entertainment map. However, it grew too large for the available infrastructure hence the move. It will continue to promote Johannes- burg as a world class city and bring visitors to our city.” EVENT PRODUCER PETER TLADI OF T-MUSICMAN EXPLAINS: “Given the exponential growth of Stan- dard Bank Joy of Jazz, the Convention Centre allows us almost unlimited numbers. We are projecting nearly 30 000 people attending this year and we will be taking the festival to greater heights at its new home for the next five years. The move to the Convention Centre has multiple benefits. It allows us to grow, to sell a full festival pass as well as to improve sound, staging, security and parking. We are also no longer at the mercy of the weather.” The 2014 Standard Bank Joy of Jazz is produced by T-Musicman and brought to audiences by Standard Bank in association with the Department of Arts & Culture; the City of Joburg, Gauteng Province and South African Tourism.
