Normally staged in early August, it has played host to a range of jazz musicians from across the world. Created in 1984 by local enthusiasts - musicians, promoters & fans - the early festival featured live jazz music on the streets & in the pubs & cafes of Brecon. It was a community event originally created by the town's residents, modelled on New Orleans-style jazz events. Jed Williams as president of the Welsh Jazz Society, & founding editor of the Cardiff-based magazine Jazz UK had many international connections & was involved since 1984, working with local organisers including Liz Elston & Tony Constantinescu. George Melly, who had a house close by, & was a friend of Toni Constantinescu, performed the following year after the success of the first festival. As well as the main festival, a Brecon Fringe is organised as alternative free music in pubs, hotels, galleries & cafes in the town. Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear & tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, & edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm. These posters will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
