KLAIPĖDA JAZZ ORCHESTRA

In 2013, Kęstutis Sova brought together the best jazz musicians of Lithuania’s Western region – professionals and students, current and former Klaipėda residents – to form the Klaipėda Jazz Orchestra of the calibre the port city never had before and contributed to it becoming the ambassador of Western Lithuanian jazz.

The orchestra represents the city in various international jazz festivals and projects, and regularly organises educational programmes for young performers in Klaipėda. It has shared the stage with many well-known foreign musicians, including Jojo Mayer, Vern Spevak, David Katz, Perico Sambeat to name the few
