About Till Brönner Porta Nigra

On June 20, 2026, starting at 8 PM, Till Brönner will perform his Italo-Pop program on the forecourt of Porta Nigra in Trier. The renowned German jazz trumpeter, singer, and producer dedicates his performance to a musical tribute to Italian pop culture from the 1960s to the 1980s. Classics by Adriano Celentano, Mina, Lucio Battisti, Paolo Conte, and others will be reinterpreted in his own jazz arrangements. The concert is part of the Porta³ festival organized by the Theater Trier (June 18-21, 2026) and brings international jazz to the spectacular ancient stage in the UNESCO World Heritage site.

Till Brönner has been the most famous and internationally successful German jazz trumpeter since the late 1990s. With albums like 'Chattin' with Chet' (1994), 'Oceana' (2006), and his album with Bob James (2020), he has significantly shaped the German jazz scene. As a singer, producer, bandleader, and TV show judge, he is known to a wide audience.

His concert in Trier on June 20, 2026 is dedicated to the pop culture of Italy from the 1960s to the 1980s. Classics by Adriano Celentano, Mina, Lucio Battisti, Domenico Modugno, Paolo Conte, and others will be reinterpreted in his own jazz arrangements. The combination of melancholic Mediterranean flair, sun-warmed melodies, and Brönner's distinctive trumpet and vocal style promises a special summer evening.

The venue is the forecourt of Porta Nigra – the black gate, a landmark of Germany's oldest city for almost 2000 years and part of the UNESCO World Heritage. The imposing Roman architecture provides an atmospheric backdrop that perfectly complements the reflective elegance of the jazz program.

The concert is part of the Porta³ Festival 2026, organized by the Theater Trier from June 18 to 21 around Porta Nigra. The festival brings together concerts of various genres: Techno (MEUTE), Schlager (Christian Steiffen), Jazz (Till Brönner), and Classical (Picnic Concert by the Philharmonic Orchestra). Tickets are available through the Theater Trier's advance booking channels.
