The MUSIC:
The Quartet led by Guitarist and Composer Maciek Pysz will be playing music from the critically acclaimed album “Insight” as well as music from their upcoming album ‘A Journey’ out on Dot Time Records in October 2015. “A Journey” was recorded at the Artesuono Studio (Italy) with ECM’s sound Engineer Stefano Amerio. The album is due for release on Dot Time Records in October 2015. Definitely something to look forward to as it features the great bandoneon master from Italy Daniele di Bonaventura, as well as extraordinary drummer Asaf Sirkis and double bass maestro Yuri Goloubev. This promises to be an unforgettable evening of world music, jazz and fusion combined with heart touching melodies.
