Liburnia Jazz Festival 2014: Luis Bonilla Medieranean Collective

Luis Bonilla -trombon; Elvis Stanić- guitar; Goran Rukavina- double bass; Paolo Muscovi- drums; Ivan Aleksijević- piano

Luis Bonilla Mediteranean Colective is an exclusive music project produced by Liburnia Jazz.

As top musicians on the horizon of the world jazz scene always attract those similar to themselves , legendary American trombonist Luis Bonilla has met Croatian guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Elvis Stanic, bassist Goran Rukavina , Italian drummer Paolo Muscovi , and Serbian pianist Ivan Aleksijević.

In the middle of Bonilla’s , Stanić’ and Aleksijević ‘ music emerges an entirely new experience of jazz - traditional American and " Latin jazz " tradition perfectly matches Mediterranean and Balkan tradition , creating a new genre , at the same time sophisticated and passionate , somehow expected, but still different. The Synergy of Bonilla , Stanić and Aleksijević gives us the best of their diversity , showing that a superb jazz music , despite of being essentially complicated , could be also very smooth and understandable to everyone .
