Evelīna Paula Zandere describes her creative practice as being fundamentally related to the human longing for perfection and clarity that comes with the feeling of beauty. The artist emphasises the concept of longing in art and uses symbolism borrowed from nature to reflect the processes of the human inner world.

3. oktobrī džeza klubā MASA uzstāsies lietuviešu mūziķu trio ar laikmetīgā džeza un post-bop koncertprogrammu.

Pēc gadiem, kas pavadīti kopā muzicējot dažādos sastāvos, šie trīs jaunie un enerģiskie mūziķi ir apvienojušies, lai debitētu kā džeza trio. Ansambļa īpašā iezīme ir harmoniskā instrumenta trūkums — mūziku veido saksofona, kontrabasa un bungu saspēle, radot neapstrādātu, telpisku un dziļi komunikatīvu skanējumu. Programmā skanēs jaunas oriģinālkompozīcijas post-bop stilā un mūsdienīgi džeza standartu aranžējumi.

Sastāvs:
Karolis Šarkus (Lietuva) — alta un soprāna saksofons
Gediminas Stepanavičius (Lietuva) — kontrabass
Domantas Razmus (Lietuva) — bungas

On October 3, a trio of Lithuanian musicians will perform a contemporary jazz and post-bop program at the MASA jazz club.

After years of playing together in various ensembles, these three young, energetic musicians have joined forces to make their debut as a jazz trio. A distinctive feature of the group is the absence of a chordal instrument; the music is shaped by the interplay of saxophone, double bass, and drums, creating a raw, spacious, and deeply communicative sound. The program will feature new original compositions in the post-bop style alongside modern arrangements of jazz standards.

Line-up:
Karolis Šarkus (Lithuania) — alto and soprano saxophone
Gediminas Stepanavičius (Lithuania) — double bass
Domantas Razmus (Lithuania) — drums
