Yekaterinburg Travel Forum

I will be in Ekaterinburg for a few weeks within the next few months. Does anyone know of any nightclubs that feature live Jazz music? Also, does anyone know of any guitar shops there? Not a music store but a place where handmade guitars are made and sold. Thanks in advance.

Just accidently I've caught an information that may be helpfull to you:

http://www.tinkoff.ru/english/concert.php?id=11

Plus to that I've heard about Jazz-club in E-burg with a name smth. like "Helicon" (not shure), at Pokryshkin st.

Cheers,
Pavel

Thanks, Pavel, for tht info. I'm not sure that this guy is actually playing Jazz but it's worth checking out. The place, Tinkoff, looks like a nice place for dinner anyway. Anybody know about this other place, Helicon?

Hi, I do not realy know if there is asop for handmade guitars, and i do not know the place Helicon, but you can find infor on www.ekaterinburg.tv. You can mail to them to, they have much information about Ekat
Good luck and have a good time there, ti is a nice city

Sorry for misinformation ;((( I've checked it.
Jazz-Club Helicon is not in E-burg, it is in Novokuznetysk. (http://468309.3843.ru) Sorry...

Hi,

Here is the company which could help you: Urals' Music Technology Center www.muztech.com/eng/company.php . And the good music shop is on Lunachrskogo st. 189. Not sure that they have handmade, so ask UMTC first mail@muztech.ru

Probably, they could advice you about clubs and festivals; all that I have is out of date…

Thanks everyone for the replies. How far is Novokuznetysk from Ekaterinburg? Is it in the same area?

Thanks for that site, Ivan, but that seems to be more focused on electric guitars. I'm looking for nylon string classical guitars, like the one I'm playing in my photo.
