Everybody Needs a Little More Jazz – this is the motto chosen by singer AnaBella – Ana Topalova and composer Minko Lambov for their upcoming concert.

"This is a gift for all connoisseurs of the elegant, beautiful, exquisite and deep feeling that classical jazz, clothed in an orchestral sound, gives us" - share the musicians.

The event is on December 5, at the Regional Center for Contemporary Arts "Toplotsentrala". The Symphony Orchestra "Sofia" and Jazz Formation "Sofia" will perform pieces by Cole Porter, Chick Curia, Dave Brubeck, Thelonious Monk, Sting, as well as original songs by Minko Lambov and Ana Topalova. The guest soloist is the famous jazz trumpeter Vencislav Blagoev.
