IGOR KOGAN’S World Home Jazz Orchestra

In a one-of-a-kind performance, seventeen top jazz
musicians have come together from around the
world, each playing their musical part from their
homes while under quarantine. They represent
seventeen countries, covering all continents – U.S.A.,
Canada, Brazil, United Kingdom, South Africa, Israel,
Italy, Germany, France, Spain, Latvia, Russia, Ukraine,
Belarus, China, Japan and Australia.
Together they perform an original and rousing big
band musical piece called "REVIVAL", composed
and produced by bandleader Igor Kogan.
"Throughout this time, artists from so many genres -
opera, pop, hip hop, dance music - have been lifting
the world's spirits. Our jazz community has been
inspired by them and have created this performance
to express our gratitude to those on the frontlines
battling the COVID-19 global pandemic and to
everyone who is staying at home and playing their
part. We wish to bring positivity and hope to people
around the world during this unprecedented
international crisis". ~ Igor Kogan, composer,
producer, musician.
All proceeds from donations will go to support the
FRONTLINE RESPONDERS FUND.
