The journey started in 1998 when several artists with versatile backgrounds have invented a complex device, full of life and colourful, powered by explosions of energy. They named it Blazzaj.
Reaching far beyond the stage, Blazzaj improvises out-of-the-ordinary
worlds. On macadam roads marched by funk soldiers, shaken at the glimpse of the bass guitar, in the sound of brass, piano and guitar riffs, their dynamic performance sends energizing waves of heath towards the audience.
Unheard stories from the underworld, virgin pieces of wood craving for carpenters, lust thoughts fading in deserted train stations, merry tunes hummed by heavy machinery and concrete buildings – it’s all in the music Blazzaj plays.

Intr-o tara tot mai claustrata in propria-i nefericire, muzica pe care ne-o daruia Cornel Chiriac reprezenta unul din putinele orizonturi deschise, una din rarele adieri de speranta" (fragment din "Blinda Insurectie a lui Cornel Chiriac", text difuzat la Radio "Europa Libera" in anul 2000, in cadrul seriei de emisiunii dedicate memoriei lui Cornel Chiriac si semnat de Virgil Mihaiu, poet, eseist, critic de jazz, actualmente directorul Institutului Cultural Roman de la Lisabona).
