Jazz en­thu­si­asts will get yet an­oth­er chance to in­dulge them­selves when the sec­ond an­nu­al T&T Jazz Week is launched.

The JATT, in col­lab­o­ra­tion with LiveArt Bistro, will launch the event, cel­e­brat­ed glob­al­ly as In­ter­na­tion­al Jazz Day, from 6.30 pm at LiveArt Bistro, 5 Al­bion Street, Port-of-Spain.

The launch will fea­ture live per­for­mances by a cast of lo­cal and re­gion­al per­form­ers who have been recog­nised for their work in lift­ing au­di­ence ap­pre­ci­a­tion of the beau­ty of jazz. Among them are Dou­glas Re­don (up­right bass); Mar­tini­quan Ed­die Clar­i­on (gui­tar) and Sean Thomas (drums).

There will al­so be a live feed of the glob­al cel­e­bra­tions host­ed by the UN­ESCO in Os­a­ka, Japan, fea­tur­ing jazz leg­end Her­bie Han­cock and guests.

The launch is in­tend­ed to her­ald the feast of events planned for T&T Jazz Week in June. Or­gan­is­ers say fol­low­ing the stan­dards set in 2013, this year's events will take jazz to young chil­dren in a se­lect­ed school and at Nalis, while adults will be treat­ed to jazz jams and main event per­for­mances and on June 28 at the Na­tion­al Acad­e­my for the Per­form­ing Arts (NA­PA), Port-of-Spain. Added to this year's cel­e­bra­tions will be an af­ter par­ty fol­low­ing the main event. A sched­ule of events will be re­leased soon.
