We are happy to announce the start of Vortex podcasts. Oliver Weindling has informal conversations with people who organise and are involved behind the scenes in the jazz world.

The first three were recorded when he was in Austria recently, taking advantage of the opportunity there to hear some live music – with audiences:

1 – Franz Hackl, trumpeter and organiser of Outreach Festival

2 – Oliver Hochkeppel, journalist and observer of the jazz scene in Munich and beyond.

3 – Emilian Tantana, organiser of jazz in Bad Ischl, Austria. The chance to hear what happens in a club in a town outside the UK
