A host of musicians from around the world are billed to contribute their own special flavor of music to the upcoming Kota Kinabalu Jazz Festival which will be held on the 14th and 15th of June at the Sutera Harbour Marina Golf and Country Club.
The scheduled lineup includes Tasmanian/Borneo collaboration ensemble “Mia Palencia In Good Company”, the Italian influenced Kekko Fornarelli Trio and the genre-bending Canadian-Thai virtuosos of Moscow Fish.
This gala musical event has garnered the full support of the Sabah Tourism, state Culture and Environment ministry, the Sabah Tourism Board and Yayasan Sime Darby. Datuk Masidi Manjun, the state Culture Tourism and Environment Minister, has lauded the concept behind the festival, stating that “Jazz and all art is an essential part of the human experience. A basic understanding and appreciation of music will broaden one’s character and deepen the connection with those around us,”
Ticket proceeds for the Jazz Festival will go towards various education and sanitation community projects.
