New Orleans is coming to Caesarea. Three of the leading jazz musicians in traditional jazz - Ken Peplowski, Duke Heitger and Jeff Barnhart, to headline this year Caesarea Jazz Festival. The tree jazz artists with their very best international ensembles will carry with them the authentic spirit of the early 1900s in New Orleans.

The jazz festival at the ancient harbor of Caesarea takes place for the fourth time from Thursday, June 12 until Saturday, June 14, 2008.

This opening show hosts Ken Peplowski's Swing Quintet. The clarinet and tenor-saxophone artist will be accompanied by jazz pianist Cyrus Chestnut and the wonderful guitarist Howard Alden. Along with them plays the Australian contrabassist Nickie Parrott, and drum legend Joe Ascione.

New Orleans jazz trumpeter Duke Heitger's nine-man-band will perform at the second evening of the festival. Heitger's large ensembles will play a rich variety of style in traditional jazz music, including a combination of swing, Dixieland and the music of New Orleans.

The brilliant stride-pianist Jeff Barnhart and his septet play last on the festival's closing night. It's an international team of extraordinary players like, Antti Sarpila, Pieter Meijers, Jim Fryer, Bob Leary, and Danny Coots.
