Jazzin’ It up!

Malta Independent Sunday, 20 February 2011, 00:00 Last update: about 13 years ago

Jazzin’it up! targets all those jazz music lovers who are in need of some jazzy vibes during the coldest month of winter.

This jazz concert, which is being organised in collaboration with the Casino Maltese, will feature Malta’s leading jazz trumpeter Adrian Brincat more known as Ir-Russu together with three other pioneers in the jazz music scene, Mro Dominic Galea on piano, Joe Bibi Camilleri on percussion and Simon Sammut on bass. The talented singer Claudette Pace will add the feminism touch to the evening.

The concert will be held on Saturday, 26 February at 8pm in the renowned Ballroom Suite of the Casino Maltese situated in Valletta’s Republic Street.

The idea of Jazzin’ It Up! was conceived following ir-Russu’s award with distinction of a Diploma in Jazz by the London College of Music. It is now high time for Adrian to give something back to the public by performing in a concert of his very own.

Jazzin’It Up! will in fact take the audience through a 90-minute journey of jazz standard tunes transposed in different jazzy styles including bebop, swing, funk, Latin and cool jazz.

Adrian Brincat is a full-time soloist trumpeter with the Armed Forces of Malta band and has been invited to participate in a good number of concerts organised by several entities including the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra. He is also a familiar face on local television.

Tickets which cost €8 can be bought from Café Jubilee of Valletta and Gzira or by phoning on ticket hotlines 9942 2291, 7906 4311.
