JAZZOPA
Jazzopa is one of the most recent projects by ASL. Six young jazz musicians from the University Lusíada in Lisbon and 2 MCs from the OPA project got together to re-invent jazz and hip hop together by mixing it up and working on the respective interfaces and common grounds.
Jazzopa represents the fusion of two musical genres and the fusion of the two ASL projects OPA and Festa do Jazz, but more than that it stands for the possibility to experiment, to reinvent sounds and to redefine musical boundaries.
