Giorgios Fakanas’ band meets the Camera, the Orchestra of the Friends of Music and assures us that classic orchestras can be led softly into the jazz sounds. Toni Lakatos will play his saxophone together with them. He is son of Hungarian gipsy violin players, and he himself goes from the violin to the saxophone in order to become one of the big names in the jazz circles.

Besides the concerts, many lectures will take place in the Palate of Music by Ron Carter (at 3:00 pm in Banquet Hall), Markus Roberts (at 1:00 pm in Skalkotas Hall), drum studios (at 11:00 am), and one saxophone lecture with Gilad Adzmon (at 12:00 pm). There will also be a bazaar and one very interesting exhibition of the left in history record covers of the sound recording company BLUE NOTE, which celebrates it 70 years birthday this year.

The ticket sale has started and whoever buys tickets for two different concerts gets a 20% discount, and for 3 or more – 30%.
