Breaking New Ground as a Female Jazz Artist
As a woman in jazz, Eleanna Pitsikaki is part of a growing movement of talented female musicians who are contributing new perspectives and voices to the genre.
Her artistry demonstrates that jazz is constantly evolving — embracing different cultures, experiences, sounds, and forms of expression.
Through her music, Eleanna continues to explore the space between tradition and innovation, creating performances that are personal, dynamic, and deeply connected to the spirit of contemporary jazz.
The initiative brings together eight European jazz publications — including Citizen Jazz (France), UK Jazz News (UK), JazzMania (Belgium), Jazz’halo (Belgium), Donos Kulturalny (Poland), In And Out Jazz (Spain), Meloport (Ukraine), and Jazz-fun (Germany). Each magazine presents a portrait of a musician who contributes to the evolving sound of European jazz.
The project celebrates the diversity, creativity, and cultural exchange that define the new generation of women in jazz across Europe.
