Young Stage Plays Film Music
Why not spending three festival evenings at concerts of young Polish composers who are very successful in many areas of music, including film score? Resina will play her dark melodies for cello and loops, Stefan Wesołowski will perform the music from the latest film by Kuba Mikurda composed for strings and synthesizer, and young representatives of the Tri-city jazz-funk stage will perform some evergreen film motifs composed by Jerzy “Duduś” Matuszkiewicz. All concerts are free of charge.
Tuesday, 21st September: Tri-city musicians play Jerzy “Duduś” Matuszkiewicz
One of the pioneers of Polish jazz and an outstanding author of film scores and themes from TV series and films beloved by millions of Poles. Jerzy “Duduś” Matuszkiewicz passed away this year. We invited a representation of modern jazz-funk musicians to perform his legacy. Alicja Sobstyl, Krzysztof Hadrych, Filip Arasimowicz and Alan Kapołka from such bands as Klawo and Tomasz Chyła Quintet will show some unique perspective on the saxophonist’s hits. They know a thing or two about reinterpretation. In July, Klawo played some popular pre-war songs in brand new arrangements.
