Album #11

Roc-a-Fella Jazz Records is proud to present its most recent signing, Czech import and bassist extraordinaire George Mraz.




"Jazz and outdoor chess have always been the two burning passions of my life," said Mraz while battling Gary Kasparov during the photo shoot at a Prague outdoor chess court. "I've often written tunes inspired by famous chess moves, but never found anyone who could empathize with the aesthetic for which I was striving. By pairing me with M. Kasparov, Roc-a-Fella Jazz has given me the opportunity to completely express myself and twin my passions in one holistic representation of my being.

"I also enjoy playing Czechers."

 George Mraz, bass and white team; Gary Kaspvarov, piano and black team.

Available for only $12.99 on compact disc when you buy a Parker Brothers Limited Edition "Czechmate" Chess set at participating locations in the Czech Republic.
