Shure Supports the Montreux Jazz Festival's 40th Anniversary
Shure Incorporated and the Montreux Jazz Festival will enter their 12th year of successful collaboration for the festival’s 40th Anniversary, which is taking place from June 30 to July 15. Shure will continue as Official Supplier of Microphones and Wireless Systems and remains as the Principal Sponsor of the 4th Annual Shure Montreux Jazz Voice Competition.
As official supplier, Shure provides a wide range of microphones and wireless, personal monitoring, and conferencing systems to support both artists and press events during the festival. In addition to equipment, Shure provides 24-hour, behind-the-scenes technical support for the duration of the festival.
“Shure’s dedication to the festival is outstanding,” noted Christoph Stahel, Executive Production Manager of the festival’s main venue, Stravinsky Hall. “You know you can rely on their support one hundred percent, no matter the time or circumstances.”
Shure continues its support of young jazz artists by sponsoring the Shure Montreux Jazz Voice Competition, which will take place July 3-4 at the Petit Palais featuring performances by the best unsigned jazz singers selected from around the world. Al Jarreau will preside over the panel of international educators and entertainers who will judge the event.
