"Unlike the commom jazz centers in the past as Paris, New York or Chicago to name just a few, norwegian jazz is not centered in Oslo or any other norwegian city but it's a mobile one.

One cannot compare the dimension of this scene with the local they're originally from.

I guess for the first time in Jazz history we have such a phenomenon thanks to the travel support gaven to this musicians by norwegian state institutions as Export Music Norway and others.

So, given this special focus on norwegian Ljubljana Jazz Festival is bringing the center of European Jazz to Ljuabljana in a way arguabily never done before."
