Filmed concert by Jamaican singer Barrington Levy at the Summerjam Festival 2026, on the shore of the Fühlinger See in Cologne, Germany, captured and broadcast by ARTE Concert. A major voice in reggae and dancehall since the late 1970s, Barrington Levy marked the genre with his agile tone and inimitable vocal flights, from “Here I Come” to “Murderer.” On the stage of continental Europe’s biggest reggae festival, he delivers a warm live set in which roots classics and dancehall hits set a devoted crowd dancing. This live capture highlights the longevity of a cult artist and the undimmed power of his stage presence. Summerjam, an essential summer date for sound-system culture, offers an ideal setting for the performance. The full concert video, produced by ARTE Concert, guarantees remarkable picture and sound quality for this valuable document. Worth discovering for the contagious joy, the unstoppable melodies and the authenticity of a filmed live concert by one of the great living legends of Jamaican reggae.
