Bringing back the magical symphonies of the experimental genre, Teamwork Arts’ Jazz India Circuit is back with its 2019 edition featuring path-breaking contemporary jazz musicians from India and around the world who continue to push the boundaries of the genre today.

Just as it has done for so many years, the Jazz India Circuit brings the best of modern jazz to Gurugram this season.
