about

It's a fusion of improvised, creative, jazz, film, beat, and gentle, subtle melody music. A soundtrack to fairy tales and childhood stories. The band, in its original compositions, explores new possibilities and sonic musical spaces. It combines jazz tradition with classical sensitivity and has a significant influence on improvised music.
The quartet's music represents creative exploration and admiration for the diversity of the world, sounds, melodies, art, and incomprehensible beings. It also reflects a deep sensitivity stemming from a love for Polish creators in classical, jazz, creative, pop, and improvised music.
