JAZZ DAYS IN ARMENIA
A1+
04-04-2005
The U.S. Embassy organizes jazz days in Armenia. The celebration is
titled «Jazz Appreciation Month» (JAM). This year a full schedule
of jazz concerts, activities and events will be presented.
Jazz, though born in America, is truly an international phenomenon.
In celebration of this, the Embassy has invited the Otar Magradze Trio
from Tbilisi to perform on April 11. From April 9-14 Armenia's favorite
jazz artists will take center stage for a series of concerts. Together
talent from three countries will present the energy and innovation
that makes jazz.
At the top of the list, we will welcome to Yerevan the critically
acclaimed group based out of New York City - The Franck Amsallem
Quartet, with guest vocalist Sara Lazarus. They will hold the final
concert of this year's festival, April 16.
JAM was created by the Smithsonian National Museum of American History
to promote jazz, stimulate its scene and encourage people of all ages
to participate in and experience great music. The purpose of JAM is
to draw greater public attention to the extraordinary heritage and
history of jazz and its importance as a living American art form and
one of our nationâ's cultural treasures. JAM is celebrated across
the United States, and in 2003, the U.S. Congress began support for
international celebrations, like this one in Yerevan.
