The Ghent Youth Jazz Orchestra presents a dazzling concert at De Centrale in Ghent! The grandiose big band gives young musicians the opportunity to grow, play together, exchange ideas and of course have fun. At the end of last year, the big band started rehearsals and try-outs, and during the Easter holidays they are launching a new project week led by guest conductor and Belgian jazz legend Richard Rousselet. On Thursday April 13, GYJO presents a unique jazz set after a week of hard work and refinement, a world premiere!
The evening will be opened in style by guitarist Artan Buleshkaj together with saxophonist Warre Van de Putte, Kobe Boon on double bass and Mathias Vercammen on drums. They met in the very first Ghent Youth Jazz Orchestra in 2012. After more than 10 years, they share the stage as the Artan Buleshkaj Quartet with the new generation of the GYJO.
Muziekmozaïek works with different rates to make music experience possible for as many people as possible. You choose the rate according to your own possibilities. The presale prices are the same as a ticket on the spot. Those who are entitled to increased compensation (e.g. UiTPAS with discount rate) can buy a ticket at the door at the discount rate (€ 2).
The Ghent Youth Jazz Orchestra is an initiative of Muziekmozaïek and Vuurvogels. This concert is supported by the City of Ghent.
