The Project has an extemporary character, it is being crated on the spot. Thus come the similarity with such projects in fine arts, where artists create new pieces in a determined time and place..
The Jazz Ex Tempore is an intercultural and educational project which deals with traditional music heritage.
The main task of the project is a comparative research of the traditional music idioms from various parts of the world , as well as it's reshaping and re-composing to a contemporary world-jazz music.
Jazz Ex Tempore is a meeting of the significant world-jazz artists from several countries which compose, rehearse and play along the new and original repertoire during a one-week event. Each of them brings their own traditional music idioms and original compositions, that are going to be explored together, interactively rearranged, rehearsed, and performed at the end of the meeting.
The peak of the project are concerts of the selected compositions, live recording of a concert and releasing the Audio CD.
In the year of 2007, a CD has been released with live recordings from final concerts 2005 and 2006. This CD has won the National Discographic Award "Porin" in all three cathegories of Jazz music (The Best Jazz Composition, The Best Jazz Album and The Best Instrumental Performance).
In 2008. and 2009. , Jazz Ex Tempore, 4th ed. has been on tour in United Kingdom, Holland, Croatia and Bulgaria. In July 2009. a CD "Round Trip" has been released for Croatia Records, followed by another tour in 2010..
