Umbria Jazz Winter

One hour north of Rome in Orvieto, an easy less than hour train from Rome's Termini Station, is preparing to launch the 16th edition of Umbria Jazz Winter, which runs from Dec. 30 to Jan. 4.

This is the sister jazz festival to Umbria Jazz Perugia, which is an annual event in the college town.

For the 2008/2009 Umbria Winter Jazz headliners include Vaneese Thomas, Stefano Bollani and the Lionel Loueke Trio.
