On its third edition now, Timisoara city (western Romania) hosts Jazz TM, which runs from July 3 through July 5, and features international beats from Marcus Miller, Aufgang, The Ruff Pack, Liv Warfield w/ Prince’s NPG Hornz, Guillaume Perret and Dianne Reeves, but also national artists such as Brum, Ana-Cristina Leonte Quintet and Exit Oz.

Jazz TM means concerts offering a truly expansive gamut of music and free outdoor shows, with exceptional lineup, both international and national, as follows:

Marcus Miller, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist, he is a living legend. The artist is the winner of numerous Grammy, as a producer for artists such as Miles Davis, Luther Vandross, David Sanborn, Bob James, Chaka Khan and Wayne Shorter. On this edition of Jazz TM, Marcus Miller will perform with Adam Agati, Alex Han, Brett Williams, Lee Hogans, Luis Cato and Mino Cinelu, on July 3, 2015 from 22:30, in the Victoriei Square, a premiere in Romania.

Prince, the pop-rock legend who had sold-out tickets for 21 times at the O2 Arena in London sends to Timisoara to present his latest musical project produced: Liv Warfield and NPG Hornz. In the beginning of her career, Liv Warfield collaborated with a myriad of local musicians in Portland. However, it was 2009 which brought the pivotal change of her career when the legendary performer Prince watched a video on YouTube of Liv singing “Gimme Shelter” and three months later, he called her to invite her to audition for his vocal backing group, the New Power Generation (NPG). Nowadays, Liv has been singing, touring and blazing stages with Prince and the NPG for the past several years, as it is described on the official webpage of the Jazz TM. Liv Warfield w / Prince’s NPG Hornz will have their concert on July 4 at 22:30, also a premiere for Romania.

Dianne Reeves is among the pre-eminent jazz vocalists in the world, being the four-time Grammy Award-winning vocalist. Currently, she teamed up with a stunning array of peers including Esperanza Spalding, Robert Glasper, George Duke, Gregory Porter, Gerald Clayton, Lalah Hathaway, Richard Bona and her producer Terri Lyne Carrington. At JazzTM 2015, she will perform alongside her band on July 5, starting at 22:30.
