New Delhi: As a prelude to the upcoming Jaipur Jazz and Blues Music Festival in October 2019, Seher India organized a jazz evening with Canadian Vintage jazz ensemble Company B yesterday evening at The Lodhi. It was the famous quartet's first performance in India with the harmonizing female vocal trio adding to the incredible instrumentals. The concert was organised in association with the High Commission of Canada, Air Canada and British Columbia.

This will be the biggest Jazz Festival to be organised in India. The aim of the festival is to bring the world of Jazz and blues closer to Indian audiences and to take this rare art form to the masses. This eclectic concert provided a glimpse of the talent one can expect at the upcoming festival.

Mr. Sanjeev Bhargava, Founder Director, Seher India, said, "We are delighted to introduce the Jaipur Jazz and Blues Festival in India. With this new festival our aim is to introduce the world of jazz and blues to music lovers. This is our first sneak preview of the upcoming festival and we appreciate the efforts of UNESCO and Rajasthan Tourism for helping us to put this festival together"
