Starting off with a double bill at Križanke with the eminent and exceptional reed player Charles Lloyd, who has made a major impact on the jazz scene over the last six decades, and the jazz luminary Chief Adjuah (formerly Christian Scott), hailing from New Orleans, the cradle of jazz. 

Charles Lloyd, one of the last still active saxophonists of the “1950s history-making saxophone generation", which included Rollins, Coltrane and Coleman, is coming to Ljubljana with his phenomenal quartet on the wings of this year's masterpiece album The Sky Will Still Be There Tomorrow.

After having expanded his understanding of jazz into a concept he calls "stretch music", the innovator Chief Adjuah’s latest release is a throwback to the origins: the music of his ancestors. Two powerful creative forces and two generations of jazz expression.
