Project summary

The exceptional young artist Fanni Posa plays a the French horn, which is rarely to be found in jazz and improvised music, where she is at home. As such, it presents a special opportunity for the 3 festivals involved – JazzHR Festival (Zagreb, Croatia), Max Klub Jazz Festival (Velenje, Slovenia) and Today It’s All About Jazz Festival (Skopje, North Macedonia) to present this act to their audience, as well as to support a young female artist on the path to establishing her international career. Ms.Posa will be performing her original music with her quartet (French horn, piano, bass and drums). Alongside 3 concert performances at the 3 festivals, she will host workshops, bringing the concept of jazz French horn closer to the attendees.
