Evening in Romania | Album | 2014 |
In May 2014 the group has won the Finnish finals of the Young Nordic Jazz Comets competition, therefore they represented Finland in the nordic showcase in September 2014 in Helsinki, within the Jazz Finland festival.
In July 2014 they have released their first album together, Evening in Romania, through EM Records, Elena's own label. The album has been very well received in Finland, but also in Romania and other European countries.
The foundation of the repertoire performed by the group is mainly based on Elena’s compositions, that invite the listener to an exotic musical journey. They combine inventively elements of traditional music from Romania into jazz. Elena Mindru is accompanied by an acoustic jazz quartet which also includes violin – a special and distinct flavour of their sound.
