The Jazz Voyager
The Jazz Voyager is off to the Motherland of Africa, specifically South Africa to 81 De Korte St, Braamfontein 53-Ir, Johannesburg, 2001 wherein resides a jazz club called The Orbit. The clubs concept finds its roots and spirit in a small Jazz Social Club established in the Troyeville section of the city in the early 2000’s by Aymeric Péguillan and 3 other partners. Peg’s Cosy Corner, as the venue was called, presented an intimate environment where musicians and jazz aficionados would hang around to drink and listen to occasional live music and recordings till late at night.
Twelve years later, the venue is reborn in Braamfontein, a booming and dynamic part of town, where Péguillan and his two partners, Dan Sermand & Kevin Naidoo, as the best possible creative expression platform for jazz musicians. After months of intense brainstorming, consultations with musicians and negotiations with stakeholders around the nature of the new venture, The Orbit, a live music venue and bistro opened.
This visit the club will present Mandisi Dyantyis with a cover charge of R140 or $10.00 US. Opening at 11:30am and closing at 2:00am, closed on Sunday and Monday, reservations can be made at theorbit.co.za or at +27 11 339 6645.
