The members of GOOD REMARKS are currently based across various academic centres around the world – studying at academies in Graz, Vienna, Klagenfurt, and Los Angeles. The quintet’s artistic identity is grounded in original compositions by double bassist and composer Tjan Šoštarič, works that subtly integrate elements of progressive jazz, soul, and jazz tradition. The result is a stylistically refined yet accessible musical language, underscored by a distinct sense of groove, lyricism, and the subtle, spontaneous flow of musical ideas. More than just an ensemble, GOOD REMARKS emerges as a finely woven artistic whole – a dialogue of five distinct voices from diverse cultural and geographical backgrounds, coming together in a shared musical space defined by respect, creativity, and sincerity.

The concert is presented in collaboration with the Jazz Velenje Cultural Association.
