TIRANA JAZZ FESTIVAL
Jazz and Alternative Music in Tirana is an artistic event well known to the capital public but also an opportunity for stronger communication and cooperation between young Albanian artists and foreign ones. This tradition started back in 2000 and has now become a very significant musical project. TIR JAZZ FEST has invited so far 235 musicians, artists, performers in 41 bands both Albanian and foreign who have interpreted and established a very prospective communication with our public. The Project has been designed and produced by MOVING CULTURE. The Jazz festivals have served as an “engine" of cultural transformation of the country and an international laboratory that supports musical research and production of Jazz and experimental music.
Jazz Festival is a Festa, organized to find, create, promote and build young artists, and alternative-hearing-and-participation spaces, where the public is invited to experiment with the emotions and atmospheres that are born out of the interaction of sound with architecture, design and hospitality.
The principal aim of Jazz festival is to spread the culture of Jazz music, as one of the most experimental and explorative forms of music. 235 musicians, artists, performers have performed in 55 concerts from 2000.
