Mapamond Pictures, My Jazz Rhapsody, brings – as the title expresses – colors and “sound images” from various places on the world map. All these sound images are united by the universal language of symphonic music and carried like a flowing river through the winding mountains of the art of musical improvisation. It is a story in which the musical discourse is transferred and transformed in the mind of the listener into messages specific to the spoken discourse (aspect confirmed by the spectators in Israel – an ideal concert audience). Thanks to the JERUSALEM SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.
Dalila Cernatescu, Ionuț Pascu (who carefully decoded the score), the Jazz Trio partners (Yonatan Rosen and Oren Hardy) and – last but not least – the ICR Tel Aviv staff made possible the successful presentation of “Symphonic Jazz Poem by Florin Răducanu”, a brand that develops periodically through the accumulation of new works composed and included in this musical creation.
