Music Festivals as a Space for Construction of Local Identities on the example of the manifestation Jazz in the Garden
Музички фестивали као простор конструисања локалних идентитета на примеру манифестације Јazz in the Garden
Keywords:
festivals, jazz, Belgrade, local identity, anthropologyAbstract
Based on the several decades-old tradition of presenting jazz through festivals firstly in Yugoslavia, and consequently in Serbia, the Jazz in the Garden manifestation was founded in Belgrade in 2021. The name of the new festival apostrophises the location of the event – “Jevremovac” Botanical Garden. With the anthropological analysis of this manifestation, we will strive to demonstrate how the manifestation in development like this one influences the construction process of one part of Belgrade’s identity through its connections with the local jazz scene. We will also consider the influence of the creation of different perceptions and new meanings of the well-known city space like the Botanical Garden “Jevremovac” in which the festival is held.
