THE ANNUAL New Faces of Slovak Jazz contest, which took place December 5 at Slovak Radio, honoured newcomers to the scene.
The band Nikolaj and jeho družina, which performs chamber modern jazz, picked up an award for inventive arrangements. Saxophone players Mikuláš Hudák and Adrián Harvan, of Jazzpresso Q, came away with an award for instrumental skills: and Los Remedios, the modern flamenco group, also picked up an award.
