About the album

Grzech Piotrowski is with no doubt one of the most interesting personalities in the Polish music world. The figure, which is difficult to close in the concrete frame, because it is a saxophonist, record producer, arranger and publisher (Alchemist Studio). The winner of hearts and awards, a prolific creator and defiant, hailed as the hope of Polish jazz. Balancing on the edge of jazz, folk, new impressionism, film music, nu-jazz and emotronic. Its open stage personality makes the concerts attract people and the music goes directly to the interior. Feature of its formation is that exude power, lyricism, nostalgia, musical metaphor and reverie. At the same time are full of humor and musical distance. He strongly emphasizes that his music is deeply rooted in Polish tradition, Eastern and Balkan folklore and the classics. (source: nor-pol.net)

After listening to the music of Bram Stadhouders and Onno Govaert on myspace, Grzech Piotrowski invited the duo for a serie of 6 concerts in Poland. This was such a success that they recorded a lot of their own music in the studio, right after these concerts. The result can be heard on "EMOQ".

Grzech Piotrowski Quartet

Grzech Piotrowski is one of the more interesting personages in the Polish music world.
