Rhodes Jazz Festival introduces its 11th edition with another fine array of distinguished jazz artists from Greece and around the world.

This year however the Festival has invited Thrassos Irinis, a known promoter, artistic director of Half Note Jazz Club and passionate music photographer to exhibit part of his huge jazz photographic work. The exhibition will be held at the Inn of England in the old town of Rhodes and is entitled “Jazz views through an insider’s lens”.

The exhibition invites visitors as well as music lovers to experience jazz through the eyes and camera of an artist who has dedicated his career to presenting the finest artists while trying to preserve some of the memorable moments they always have to offer. The intimacy, the strong emotions, the unpredictability of the improviser, depicted here by someone who’s familiar with the genre and who’s usually next to the bandstand with the camera in his hands.

The photo exhibition will be the opening event for the 11th edition of the Rhodes Jazz Festival and is open to the public from 13th September until 20 September.
