On the 21st May 2019, Silvan Zingg set out on a special trip to the United States. Via Chicago he travelled Oklahoma, where he gave a charity concert at the Blackwell High School in Blackwell, OK.

Arrived in Blackwell, he found very bad conditions: The city along the Chikaskia River was struggling with a massive flood which reached historical levels. Streets were flooded and people had to be rescued from their homes. “It was terrible and shocking to see that. My thoughts are with the people who have to deal with this catastrophe and its impacts”, says Silvan Zingg.

February 2019 is THE month for the big world tour. After his tour through South Africa, Silvan Zingg went to Mont-Dore, France to participate at the famous Sancy Snow Jazz Festival. For the 30th anniversary of this festival, he performed four fabulous concerts together with his Trio.

Only a few days later, the three musicians traveled on to Panama in Central America. The Trio was guest at ‘The biggest little festival in the world’ – The 13th Annual Boquete Jazz & Blues Festival from 21st – 24th February 2019 on the slopes of Volcán Barú in Boquete, Panama.

After my first South Africa tour in 2018 I knew, I have to come back very soon to see those lovely people, my friends and fans over there again. This came true and so I headed off again to this beautiful country by the end of January 2019.

Danke für ein großartiges Jahr!

Das Jahr 2018 neigt sich dem Ende entgegen. Wenn ich zurückblicke und an meine persönlichen Highlights dieses Jahr denke, so gibt es einige.

Zunächst sind da natürlich die tollen Konzerte im Ausland. Im Januar war meine erste Tour außerhalb der Schweiz 2018. In Baku, Aserbaidschan durfte ich meinen „Die Welt des Boogie Woogie und Blues Pianos“- Vortrag halten und Konzerte für die Musikstudenten der Kunstuniversität geben.

Thank you for a great year!

The year 2018 is going to end soon. When I look back and think of my personal highlights this year, there are quite a lot.

First of all, there are of course the great concerts abroad. In January was the first tour in a foreign country in 2018. In Baku, Azerbaijan I was able to give my „The World of Boogie Woogie and Blues Piano“- lecture and concerts to the arts university music students.
