I have a profound love for jazz and spend most of my waking hours immersed in this unique art form. As a listening, composing, and thinking being, jazz stands as a constant and exemplary beacon in my life. I am therefore pleased to now have a place in one of jazz’s strong organizations, surrounded by seriously talented people in both the board and the secretariat.
Lennart Ginman.
