Jazz Encounters in Pafos - KARAPATAKIS – HILDENBRAND – SPYRIDAKIS – A cross cultural project
An intercultural jazz project based on a new sound idea of the band’s musicians. The three musicians met on their long and fascinating travels. Their knowledge and experience corresponds to structures which have been based, and internalised over time, on a variety of aesthetic styles. Their chemistry is astonishing and their music is undoubtedly lyrical, approachable and filled with captivating melodies that reach fascinating and dynamic crescendos. A jazz concert fully endowed with traditional elements and focused on the ambient and mood.
Gavriil Karapatakis (Fretless Bass)
Hub Hildenbrand (Guitar)
Zacharias Spyridakis (Cretan Lyre)

Duration: 75 minutes
The Jazz Trio of the double bass player Irenaeos Koulouras together with Giorgos Krasidis and Giorgos Koulas, will perform together with two exceptional musicians from Israel, Jess Koren and Ofer Ganor. The long collaboration between the Trio and Ofer Ganor and, at the same time, between Ofer and Jess, were the reason and the idea behind this encounter at Ibrahim Khan.
The dynamic saxophone duet and the occasional clarinet of Giorgos Krasidis together with the rhythmical part of Ofer Ganor, Irenaeos Koulouras and Giorgos Koulas, promise a fascinating encounter of top-notch jazz.
The repertoire is based on compositions of the musicians, as well as pieces of Mingus, Monk, Coltane and Karagiorgis.
