Dear Jazz Friends,
I would like to update you with information about the first online international jazz competition!
American jazz commentator, SCOTT YANOW, known for many contributions to the jazz music for over 30 years, gave an insight into the Made In New York Jazz Competition, "There have been many jazz contests held through the years, but the one created by the Made In New York Jazz Competition is unique! "
By being conducted entirely on the Internet, artists from every country have an opportunity to participate and possibly be discovered and win. Because the Internet brings people together and makes the world a much smaller place, the contest will shatter geographical barriers. All that will matter will be the artist’s musical talents and creativity.
MADE IN NEW YORK JAZZ is fusing social media and jazz music in ways never seen before!!
AT this early stage in the competition, there have already been entries submitted by musicians from all over the world - Argentina, Brazil, US, Armenia, Hong Kong, Israel, Serbia, Austria, Croatia, Germany, Montenegro, France, Spain, Macedonia, Belarus, Poland, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Portugal, South Korea, Russia & Italy!
Since launching in January, the site www.madeinnyjazz.com has been receiving 500 - 2,000 unique visitors daily, has garnered 5,000 registered users and logged over 40.000 video loads each week!!
