“Remove the bass guitar from any group, whether it is a trio, a quartet or an orchestra, and everything will break. The bass is the trunk of the tree to which the branches are attached. First the branches and only then toys,” Igor said in an interview. And it’s hard not to agree with him.
Bass guitar is the base on which everything stands. And bass players are always musicians with a core. Igor Zakus is one of them. After graduating from the Lviv Musical College and conservatory in oboe class, he became interested in bass guitar. It was a guitar who became a native to the musician later.
There is everything in the music of Zakus – brilliant technique, exquisite melodicism, real Ukrainian melody, along with the soundness of the sound brought to the international level. It will sound in the cozy atmosphere of the Caribbean Club, the most jazz club in Kyiv.
On May 29, Igor’s partners on the stage will be some of the best Ukrainian jazz performers Rodion Ivanov, Denis Moroz, Sergei Balalaev, and invited guests.
