LEGO is launching a Jazz Quartet set, following a successful campaign on its LEGO Ideas platform.
Designed by Taiwan-based LEGO fan Hsinwei Chi, the set allows consumers to build a group of four musicians, each with one of a grand piano, trumpet, double bass, and jazz drum.
“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,” said Chi.
“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 Jazz Quartet set is available from July 1st.
