Montreux Jazz Festival 2009
Posted By: tcom, 07-08-2009, 06:56 AM

This year's edition of the Montreux Jazz Festival opened last Friday.

The festival has two "programs", one paying program showing well known artists but where photography is not allowed, and a free program showing less known artists (at least to me), but allowing photography.

I tried to attend a few concerts and make a few shots. I will show here a severe selection of shots of the concert and add more photos as they come...

B3 Jazz Orchestra:
K20D, DA*200, 1/100s, f/4, 100iso

There was also a Solo Piano Competition. I took a few shots during the competition, but the room where the competition takes place is really dark, and with tungsten light.

The piano

I am now lusting after the DA*200. Looks like the perfect lens for gig photography.
