And “One into life” is probably the motto even after the long period of the pandemic. “The young people have become hungry for performance. This year we had almost twice as many registrations as usual,” says group leader Michael Sablatnig. 65 musicians (12 bands) with drums, e-guitar, saxophone and the like drew attention in the jazz, popular music, singer and songwriter categories. The topic “How sounded peace?” was given. Pieces were arranged and composed for this.
