NEU JAZZ

New european jazz

Jazz has always been an interactive genre, serving as a platform where musicians with different experiences and cultures but with common harmonic rules, rhythm and improvisation notions, communicate and exchange ideas. In such a globalized world as ours, new media and the Internet stand as a new communication platform especially for young generations. The widespread use of technological instruments, such as new media, Internet, innovative software, social networks and audio-video reproduction and editing tools, is encouraging a new type of creativity. Neu Jazz puts into the foreground new contemporary expressions proposed by the new generations of European jazz.
