Jazz Guitar Duo – Jūris Benaitis & Žilvinas Benaitis
A father and son guitar duo where improvisation, jazz tradition and musical dialogue meet. Their music blends jazz, bossa nova and freely evolving improvisations, shaped by space, moment and listener.
Sound and Approach
The sound of two guitars becomes a subtle and constantly shifting musical texture. The music develops through listening, interaction and the relationship between silence and sound. Jazz remains a point of departure, while each piece takes on a unique and evolving form.
Fragments of jazz repertoire appear – from Autumn Leaves to Wave or There Will Never Be Another You – yet they are treated freely, leaving space for improvisation.
