2 days Music- and Business Workshop SOFIA 2025
SOFIA (Support Of Female Improvising Artists) takes up an idea of the American sponsorship program Sisters in Jazz, which was set up for the further musical education of female jazz musicians, but adds an important component to it: In addition to the artistic profiling of young female musicians, the aim is to promote their networking and self-marketing. With this orientation SOFIA reacts to the specific demands that are currently placed on young improvising musicians and sees itself as part of a newly awakened trend towards the more targeted promotion of young musicians (e. g. Take Five Europe). Due to its independent orientation, SOFIA positions itself as a pioneer project in the international context.
