The quality of music offered during the five nights of the last edition of the Festival, convinced the organizers of its importance for Albanian culture and for the entire Balkan scene. The music of TIRANA JAZZ FESTIVAL 08 will represent a continuous play between our collective memory and its reinterpretations. Prof/As Fatos Qerimi |
