M.A.S.A.

M.A.S.A. is a project created by pianist and composer Rūdolfs Macats together with friends and colleagues – singer Elīna Silova, saxophonist Kārlis Auziņš and drummer Ivars Arutyunyan. It will be a transcendental and hypnotic flight of minimalist development sounds, in which electronic music and jazz will mix, creating a collective improvisation that will turn into organic compositions.
