We have had the chance to invite Emma again in the spring of 2024, for another expressive and charming jazz party. The repertoire will be predominantly compositions by Emma Rawicz, Morten Haxholm and selected jazz standards, a wonderful mix of Afro-Cuban inspired rhythms, rock-hard swinging modern jazz, curly melodies and funky grooves.
