"Only When Malawi Will Start Bringing Special Jazz Programs, Equipped Venues, Festivals And Workshops –
Can We Fully Understand What Jazz Is"
Lilongwe Jazz Festival.
About the Jazz Festival
The Festival is an annual event hosted in Malawi’s beautiful capital, the leafy Lilongwe and comprises the display and the performance of jazz music in Malawi, with the aim of increasing the appreciation and the enjoyment of jazz music as an art form in the country.
The Festival seeks to provide a platform that debunks the myth that the music genre, jazz, is somehow an indicator of an upper class in society. Jazz, as an art form, has absorbed a variety of regional, national and local musical cultures.

Kayesa Inn is where Paliani formed a local studio and workshop space to teach music for both professionalized artists and the local the community. The space is also used in collaboration with the international non-profit organization Music Cross Roads to implement different community led musical projects.
