"Tupac, Elvis Presley, the Spice Girls and Boyz 2 Men, they all knew it: Mama is the best, so they dedicated a song to her.

Die aktuelle Sendung NOWJazz von Franziska Buhre/ SWR2 trägt den Titel “Geschlossene Gesellschaft? Auf der Suche nach Diversität im Jazz”. Sie erinnert daran, dass Jazz einst auf der Basis gesellschaftlicher Vielfalt entstanden ist – und fragt, wie Diversität im Jazz gegenwärtig wahrgenommen wird, von Musiker*innen, dem Publikum, Organisator*innen und Interessensvertretungen.

Auch RomnjaJazz ist Teil der Sendung: Franziska Buhre führte Interviews mit Tayo Awosusi-Onutor und Matilda Leko und strahlte ihre zwei Lieder Kelas (Tayo) und Jovano Jovanke (Matilda) in der Sendung aus.

"Not only women in general are clearly underrepresented in jazz music - especially women who are" people of color "or who have a different minority background, have a hard time getting their way in the scene because of persistent disadvantage.

That is why RomaTrial eV initiated the one-year support program RomnjaJazz with the support of the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Europe.

In the current year 2019, three jazz musicians and composers from Berlin with a Sinti and Roma background work together with experts from various fields to promote their artistic development, to improve their practical management skills and to create an attractive image for their self-presentation .
