A surprising blend between the music of the sparkling Romanian vocalist Elena Mîndru with the impetuous style of the virtuoso Polish violinist Adam Baldych, backed up by a stellar Finnish jazz trio Finnection.
Their music is spiced up in an inventive way with elements of traditional music from Romania and Poland, embodying the jazz tradition from a modern perspective. It tells stories about life, love, and humanity. It breaks cultural borders and it connects souls.
They have performed together for the first time in 2018, at Gărâna Jazz Festival, and continued with performances within other well-known festivals like Enjoy Jazz Festival and Stockholms Kulturfestival in 2019.
The quintet has recorded their first album together and looks for partnering with a label.
