The Hungarian Jazz Research Foundation has been recognised for its efforts both in Hungary and abroad in the ten years since it was set up. In addition to publishing ?Jazz Research?, it puts out printed and digital materials on Hungarian jazz in Hungarian, German and English.

Internationally renowned Hungarian jazz historian Géza Gábor Simon is the editor-in-chief of ?Jazz Research?, and Ilona Egyed is in charge of the publication?s online edition.
