The latest addition to the ever-growing LEGO® Ideas range has been revealed today. The 42nd set is the Jazz Quartet and was chosen after a music-themed LEGO Ideas Contest. The design by LEGO fan Hsinwei Chi was chosen to become a LEGO Ideas set after making it through the Fan Vote. The set captures a jazz band as they get lost in the music they are playing. The set, which will be from July 1st, has been slightly tweaked compared to the original design, adding a female musician and a display stand. It’s certainly an interesting addition to the LEGO Ideas theme. Learn more below and my review of the set will hopefully arrive ahead of the set’s release.
FEEL THE RHYTHM WITH THE NEW LEGO® JAZZ QUARTET SET
Latest fan-designed creation from LEGO is perfect for music lovers
Billund, 15th June 2022: Today, the LEGO Group has revealed the latest fan-designed set, LEGO Ideas Jazz Quartet – a striking depiction of a musical ensemble in brick form, designed to be co-built by up to four friends. Designed by Taiwan based, LEGO fan, Hsinwei Chi through the LEGO Ideas platform – which offers fans the opportunity to submit their own brick creations with the chance to have their concept brought to life with the help of LEGO master designers and a share of the profits.
Let the smooth harmony and diversity of jazz music take on a new form with this latest set, which consists of a group of four musicians on a stage, with a grand piano, trumpet, double bass, and jazz drum, representing a quartet as they perform. Place the finished piece on a bookshelf and admire it whilst you relax with some melodies playing in the background.
LEGO Ideas fan designer Hsinwei Chi says, “There is nothing quite like the warmth of jazz music, so when I designed this set I wanted the LEGO bricks to truly capture the musical vitality of a live band. Much like LEGO building, free-spirited jazz can be medicine for your mind – so I hope when the Jazz Quartet set is built and displayed, people will feel a connection to the music.”
The new LEGO Ideas Jazz Quartet set is available for £89.99 / € 99.99 / $ 99.99 /169.99 AUD/ 129.99 CAD
from LEGO stores and www.LEGO.com/jazz from 1st July 2022.
