All That Jazz
From understated, low-key Forte to Le Club’s hazy Manhattan hipness, Moscow’s jazz clubs are all unique in their own way. They do have one thing in common, though — great music.

It’s A Gas

Blue Bird's Jazzy Beat
The city’s oldest jazz club, Sinyaya Ptitsa, or Blue Bird, celebrates its 40th anniversary this September. The historic venue owes its origin to the political “thaw” of the 1960s, which saw the opening of a dozen or so cafes run by Komsomol members.
