After Sibiu Jazz Festival, the town is again jazz Capital on November 14-16.
This year, a new jazz festival is set in motion on the Romanian cultural arena. We are talking about Mozaic Jazz Festival taking place between November 14 and 16 in Sibiu. The festival is based on a simple concept, focused on the quality of the participating artists and bands as well as on the experience offered to the audience.
The first famous guest to open the festival is “Trilok Gurtu Band” (photo), one of the most appreciated jazz and world music percussionists of all times. During his over 40 years of career he collaborated with artists such as: John McLaughlin, Joe Zawinul, Jan Garbarek, Don Cherry, Bill Evans, Pharoah Sanders, Dave Holland, Zakir Hussain, Neneh Cherry and many more. He will come to Sibiu together with his band.
