JJA CHAMBER PROJECT

JJA Chamber Project, a project put together by Jievars Jasinskis, will appear at Vilnius Jazz Festivali n 2022. The main idea of the concert program is the synthesis of jazz and academic music. The JJA Chamber Project reflects the composer’s interest in these musical directions. Jazz and academic music are also interwoven with the help of performers, in order to achieve cooperation between the representatives of two different disciplines. The debut album was released on online platforms in 2022.
