Here is what Jazz Masters are saying about #Madeinnyjazz
We offer 5 different categories to enter, so every musician is likely to find something to their taste. The judges will make the final selection of the winner, from a group of candidates selected by a combination of the committee and popular votes.
Philip Harper
"It's a great situation, it's good for all of us! It gives us a chance to meet, greet people from all over the world and still have one common denominator between us which is a good feeling of music! It shows that jazz is a world music. I think it should be supported. It's a beautiful concept!"

"It takes a concert and talents like this to push me to be better. I wish I could do this kind of things more. This project is so inspiring, it makes me think of what's really important what we are really trying to do artistically"
