Black Eyed Peas, Azealia Banks, "Spleen" and Ivan Dorn: What musicians are waiting for you at the festival "the Jazz Manor"

What is the "Manor Jazz»

The first "Manor the Jazz" took place in the estate "Arkhangelsk" in 2004. Over 15 years at the festival were young artists and well-known jazz musicians. In 2008, here I played Yusef Lateef - innovator, befriended jazz standards with eastern musical traditions, and 2009, the headliner was the Branford Marsalis - saxophonist with "Grammy", who played with Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie and Sting.

If you are about anything do not say those names, do not worry. Jazz - a genre that exists between popular and academic music. It can accidentally fall in love, and it does not need to finish the conservatory or explore artist bios.

jazz language can understand each - this is the key idea in the philosophy of "Manor Jazz».

One with the word "jazz" are virtuoso on the piano, others - saxophone dissonances, the third - the vocals of Nina Simone and Louis Armstrong. And all right. For a century the genre has changed: it has appeared dozens of branches and sub-genres, which can sound completely different.

You hear the howl of languid saxophone, under which it would be desirable to relax and lie down in the bath? This smoothie has played jazz. A illogical chord changes and convulsive sound tools, if not hit the notes? This free jazz - a pilot sub-genre, which, according to many, it is impossible to listen to.

"Manor Jazz» invites jazz musicians playing music with different tempos, moods and melodies - something you definitely will like. Headlining festivals often became pop artists, which at first glance have nothing to do with jazz, - SunSay, Manizha, Pompeya, «Aquarium", "Auction" Christmas Tree, L'One.

This is a family festival, which will have a good time. The child can be diverted to a separate stage - where he will be able to go on a musical journey to visit the queen of jazz Ella Fitzgerald and try himself as a jazz musician. Entrance for children under 10 years free. Also located on site are always working market, food court and dozens of recreational areas for all ages.

During its long history the group has had to experiment with funk, R'n'B, Latina and the EDM, but it all started with hip-hop. On his return to his name says track Back 2 Hiphop, opening the last album.

The reunification of Black Eyed Peas is not the case when the half-forgotten old men have decided to earn a little on past glories.
