Some of the young jazz musicians have won international awards, finding their own musical style, and are able to play with world-class musicians on the same stage.

Seeing the potential in the market, New York's Blue Note Jazz Club, one of the world's most renowned jazz clubs, opened a branch in Beijing in 2016 and in Shanghai in 2019.

"The audience for jazz music is always new and young-that's the main force to keep the festival going," says Sun Yang, director of the NCPA Taihu Stage Art Center. "People can see and hear jazz music and jazz musicians live, outdoors, in a relaxed, laid-back setting, which is a great experience on summer nights."

The NCPA Taihu Stage Art Center, a stage art complex, was launched in 2018 by the National Center for the Performing Arts. Covering an area of nearly 60,000 square meters, the art center has multiple indoor and outdoor theaters, rehearsal rooms and areas to keep technical equipment, costumes and sets.
