During the Dutch Cultural Week, the “Gjon Mili Jazz & Blues Festival,” in collaboration with the Embassy of the Netherlands in Tirana, is presenting the renowned group “Roaring Cats.”

The week of events will be concluded with this concert, which will take place tonight at the Reja installation.

This small orchestra based in Amsterdam is committed to honoring and giving new significance to the roots of jazz. Their energetic repertoire includes original arrangements of classic songs from the 1930s and 1940s, featuring artists such as Fats Waller, Cab Calloway, Duke Ellington, and Jimmie Lunceford. Additionally, they will present original compositions in the Swing Era style. Their music brings excitement to swing dancers and engages attendees in the event.

The Roaring Cats are composed of: Sam Ghezzi (vocals, saxophone), Mo van der Does (clarinet, saxophone), Coos Zwagerman (trumpet), Joan Codina (trombone), Mikel Legasa (piano), Davor Stehlik (drums), Tomek van Leeuwen (double bass), and Joe Crotch (drums).
