JAZZ LIVES IN A JAZZ CLUB<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

The aim of the project between the Jazz Estonia and Philly Joe’s Jazz Club is to introduce the bright universe of jazz music to children in a concert-chatting room environment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The project begun from an idea to test the children and the young \u2013 are they able to forget the surroundings and focus on music? 45-minute long concert-chatting room takes its participants on a spirited journey to the bright universe of jazz music where Estonian jazz musicians talk about the birth and essence of jazz, play the most known pieces, introduce instruments and their own journey to music and reply to all possible questions. The highlight of every event is an authentic jam session. What’s special about this project is also the fact that these concerts-chatting rooms take place in a jazz club \u2013 the place where jazz music is born.<\/p>\n

Students\u2019 thoughts on this project:<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing the one who has not had much contact with jazz I was surprised how much I liked it, how every piece made me think about different things and how versatile jazz really is. What captivated me the most was when they asked the audience to come up with a theme and then put together an amazing piece.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the concert, I thought a lot about how open and free the thinking of jazz musicians can or has to be. Considering that part of their performance or the whole concert is based on improvisation, so being there in that moment and listening to it, it is wonderful and unbelievable.\u00a0The performers, when they are on stage, they create something completely new, something that no one else has ever heard before and something that no one else will ever hear again. In a way, it is like a secret or magic that is shared only between the audience and the performers.\u00a0The whole atmosphere of the club was very warm and caused a great desire to go back there and re-experience that kind of a concert.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

In 2017, students (aged 8 to 18) from the following schools took part in this project: Harkuj\u00e4rve P\u00f5hikool, Laulasmaa Kool, Gustab Adolfi G\u00fcmnaasium, Rocca al Mare Kool, Tallinna 32.
