At Jazz in the Park, Vlad Dobrescu brings his experience as a rapper, producer, and DJ into a unique setting alongside jazz musicians, transforming his songs into more fluid and improvisational live experiences. Known as a member of the group CTC, alongside Deliric and DOC, and as the founder of the independent label Facem Records, Vlad blends technical rhymes and introspective themes with the energy of collective improvisation.
