The 2013 British Jazz Awards Winner's Presentation - in association with The Jewellery Quarter BID at Birmingham International Jazz Festival at St. Paul's Church

Since 1987 the British Jazz Awards, known as The Jazz Oscars, have recognised the best in British jazz in 12 individual categories, plus two for bands and two industry awards for new and reissued CDs.

Since 1987 the British Jazz Awards, known as The Jazz Oscars, have recognised the best in British jazz in 12 individual categories, plus two for bands and two industry awards for new and reissued CDs. In their original form the Awards took place in the Grand Hotel, Birmingham, so it is with particular pleasure that we return the ceremony to Birmingham as part of the Birmingham International Jazz and Blues Festival which began in the city two years before the first Jazz Awards ceremony. Thanks to the work of the Jewellery Quarter BID the 2013 Jazz Awards ceremony will take place in St. Paul’s Church on July 10th at 7.30 pm. As always the presentation is followed by the Poll Winners Concert which is likely to be one of the musical highlights of the festival, though, for obvious reasons, the musicians can’t be named yet! Then the evening is rounded off by the British Jazz Awards Afterparty at the Dropforge with Roy Forbes and the Brian Dee Trio.
