Wine, Art and Jazz
———————————————————————
Live Jazz Trio & Artistic Exhibition
Saturday 5th April, Cafe Noto, 2nd Level Bay Street, 11.30pm onwards - Free Entrance


The Music
Everybody enjoys live music, and when we are talking about talented and experienced musicians, even more so. In our previous editions we had a Jazz Trio; an acoustic guitarist (Delli), a percussionist (Zizza) and a saxophone player (Ruth Abela). This is probably the main focus of the night, and that is why a lot of importance is placed on choosing the right musicians. On popular demand this trio has been re-confirmed.

The Art
The second concept of the night is the focus on Art as a medium of creative expression and communication. Art has long been appreciated, and having an artist, sometimes two, display their art at the event increases the quality of the night. For this event we will have an exhibition by Ed Schembri. (Refer to attached pics below)

The Wine
The third concept of the night is the Culture of Wine. It is evident from the amount of wine bars that are springing up, that contemporary Maltese people, have a heartfelt appreciation for Wine.

All these three concepts are brought together, for one night. They complement each other and harmoniously overlap, attracting a crowd of cultured and mature young adults.

A 5hr Journey by Owen Jay

12th April  ~  QBar, WaterFront  ~ Free Entrance

Owen Jay’s performance at Q- Bar will feature different styles of house music ranging from minimal German grooves to jazzy Chicago rhythms to Detroit tech-house. However, the performance will also feature live musicians, who like Owen Jay will be using this event as a platform to display their art. Dr. Zicotron from the band Spooky Monkey will be playing the jazzy keys whilst Darko, a Serbian percussionist from the band No Snow No Alps, will be progressing the night with his tribal rhythms. Further complementing the night will be Abba aka The Missing Link, Claire Tonna from the band Particle Blue and the lovely and multi-talented performer, Annabelle Galea.  This combination of live musicians performing alongside the DJ is highly sought after because the musicians will adapt their performance to the crowd creating a continuous progression. Giulivo, as the warm up DJ will set the mood for the night with his groovy tunes.

It has been over 8 years since Owen Jay performed a 5 hour set on this scale. It has been over 8 years since Owen Jay performed a 5 hour set on this scale. On 2 turntables and 2 cdjs, he intends to reach out and educate the crowd with his house music religion, mixing classic house from the 90’s with more recent as well as unreleased tracks. And the venue chosen for this event is Qbar, one of Malta’s latest hip lounge bars that entices people from different generations to sample some of the finer things in life. Surely an event not to be missed!!
