CONGRESS PARTY

The Congress Party was held in the MORITZ-BASTEI a superb location in the City Centre of Leipzig.

Build between 1551 and 1553 the Moritzbastei is the only remaining part of the ancient city fortifications, nestled behind the Gewandhaus Concert Hall and City Skyscraper. The Moritzbastei was commissioned by Elector Moritz of Saxony in the 16th century and later named after him.

It has survived 400 tumultuous years and it was used in many different ways. In 1974 students began to work on the Moritzbastei, freeing it of the debris it was filled with. Since 1989, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Moritzbastei serves as Cultural Centre and event location.

WFC10 delegates were charmed by the unique atmosphere of this extraordinary venue.


THE PARTY FEATURES Gartshore's Gentlemen
Gartshore's Gentlemen is a Jazzband featuring any number of players. The standard setting is a piano quartet - piano, guitar, bass and drums and the "full set" has trumpets, trombones and saxophones added - a mini big band!

Standard numbers are arranged in a completely different manner - the repertoire includes 20's Fats Waller hit Honeysuckle Rose, not as an up-tempo piano number, but as a laid back guitar feature, wandering through different keys.
