JazzKLUB / Marylin Mazur Group / A stunning arsenal of instruments from all over the world

Date & Time
Tue, Mar 18, 2025, 19:30
The lucky ones, born early enough to have participated in that legendary concert, certainly remember the Danish drummer’s spectacular performance with Miles Davis’ group at the 1988 Warsaw Jazz Jamboree. Consecutive generations of fans grew up with Marilyn Mazur’s playing on Jan Garbarek’s records, a collaboration which lasted over a decade. While, paradoxically, only selected works by the New-York-born Dane with Polish roots are known in Poland, the same cannot be said about Denmark, where Marilyn Mazur is considered an...

JazzKLUB / Get The Blessing / A fascinating kaleidoscope of groove

Tue, Apr 15, 2025, 19:30
Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Chamber Hall (Katowice)
Jim Barr (Bass guitar), Clive Deamer (Drums), Jake McMurchie (Saxophon), Pete Judge (Trumpet)
The band’s members’ discographies amount to a picture of several generations of British rock music: from Peter Gabriel and Robert Plant to Hawkwind, Portishead and Radiohead. Nevertheless, their horizons and inspirations reach far beyond that genre – which is probably the foundation of the group’s success. Get The Blessing travelled a long way, from the pugnacious Ornettian inspirations on their 2008 All Is Yes, to the trance-like, almost cinematic soundscapes of the latest albums. Still, however, Judge’s trumpet enhances the hypnotic trance with the element of unpredictability, McMurchie’s saxophone lending the band’s onirically meditative music its body and power. Seen from afar, the group’s music emanates calmness, while close up it is full of movement and surprising details. All this results in a fascinating kaleidoscope of grooves, colours and moods. Tomasz Gregorczyk Concert duration: approximately 90 minutes

JazzKLUB / “Laborka”, or the showpiece of jazz Krakow

Tue, Jun 3, 2025, 19:30
Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Chamber Hall (Katowice)
Janusz Grzywacz (Keyboards), Janusz Grzywacz (Vocoder), Marek Stryszowski (Alto saxophone), Marek Stryszowski (Soprano saxophone), Marek Stryszowski (EWI), Marek Stryszowski (Vocals), Krzysztof Ścierański (Bass guitar), Marcin Ścierański (Drums), Marek Raduli (Guitar)
This band has more than half a century of history if we don't count the break of a dozen years arranged by Janusz Grzywacz and Marek Stryszowski at the turn of the century. They debuted in 1971 at Gitariada '71, a festival they organised in Nowa Huta, Krakow, which introduced fusion and jazz-rock elements to the Polish scene. Over the years, they have developed their style, which has been compared to that of the American group Weather Report, consisting, especially in the early period, of experimenting with instrumentation and combining different types of sound. Laborka ("Lab"), as they are colloquially called, is undoubtedly a showpiece of jazz Krakow and, simultaneously, a top spot on the list of Polish bands of all time. Maria Wilczek-Krupa Concert duration: approximately 90 minutes

JazzKLUB / Adam Baran & Helicopets / Winners of the Jazz Juniors 2024 Competition

Tue, Jan 7, 2025, 19:30
Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Chamber Hall (Katowice)
Helicopets, Adam Baran (Electric Guitar), Panilas (Bass clarinet), Józef Biegański (Drums), Józef Biegański (Electronics), Piotr Zygma (Bass guitar)
A modern sound and collective improvisation transgressing the borders of genres – this is how the music of the Helicopets quartet, awarded at the 2024 Jazz Juniors competition, can be described in a nutshell. In their work, the group courageously broadens listeners’ conception of jazz, reaching for inspirations ranging from minimalism, through ambient, to electronic music. The quartet consists of artists who come from the experimental scene. The spacious sound, with electronic and avant-garde elements, is created by: the leader and guitarist Adam Baran, the bass clarinetist Panilas, the drummer Józef Biegański and the bassist Piotr Zygma. The Helicopets debuted in October 2024, at the Jazz Juniors festival in Cracow, where they received a host of special awards (from NOSPR, Jazz Denmark, JazzFest Brno, Budapest Music Center and Jazz Vineyard), thanks to which the musicians will set off on a European concert tour. So far, they have released two singles online: Murakami and Army of Me, planning their debut album to premiere in 2025.Julia BroniowskaNo festival in Poland is more clearly part of the history of the Polish jazz scene. This is the 48th edition, and the Jazz Juniors International Competition for Young Jazz Ensembles has celebrated improvised music since 1976 (when Wojtek Gogolewski's Quartet was on the podium). It is a unique platform for exchanging experience and a meeting place between established masters and the young generation of jazz artists. It is a critical event for the winners as it opens doors to prestigious stages worldwide. It was Krakow's Jazz Juniors competition that created the current legends: Leszek Możdżer, Adam Bałdych, Paweł Kaczmarczyk or Piotr 'Pianohooligan' Orzechowski. The composition of the competition jury is variable. In the previous edition, musicians from different parts of the world were judged by an international panel chaired by Norwegian trumpeter Nils Petter Molvaer.

JazzKLUB / Theo Croker Quartet / The Visionary Trumpet

Tue, May 20, 2025, 19:30
Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Chamber Hall (Katowice)
Theo Croker (Trumpet), Mike King, Eric Wheeler (Double bass), Jaylen Petinaud (Drums)
It is not easy to live up to the legend and bear the legacy of your grandfather – a trumpet player who was a favourite of Armstrong and toured with Goodman. The grandfather was an icon of New Orleans jazz who had little to do with New Orleans itself but went down in history as a significant genre representative. From Doc Cheatham, Croker inherited determination and a propensity for titanic work. He was exposed to jazz as a child, although at the time, he didn't understand what heritage was, and he wanted to play the trumpet because it sounded majestic and loud. His music has a lot of elegance and a willingness to experiment with style. You can hear soul music, R&B, or hip-hop there, and Croker does not shy away from electronic music either. His artistic emploi can be summed up in two words: ambition and vision. A quote could also be used: 'The world is constantly changing. It was fought differently by my grandfather; it is fought differently by me.' Maria Wilczek-Krupa Concert duration: approximately 90 minutes

JazzKLUB / Otomo Yoshihide Special Big Band / Japanese giant of the avant-garde

Sat, Oct 19, 2024, 19:30
Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Concert Hall (Katowice)
Yoshihide Otomo (Electric Guitar), Tatsuo Kondo, Kan Saito, Nashie Inoue, Hiroshi Suzuki (Saxophon), Ryoko Egawa (Saxophon), Ryota Higashi (Saxophon), Shutoku Sato, Osamu Imagome (Trombone), Jinya Kimura (Tuba), Shunsuke Okuchi (Accordion), Shinobu Kawai (Bass guitar), Takefumi Kobayashi (Drums), Itoken (Drums), Hitomi Aikawa, Sachiko M
This is the largest and one of the most amazing ensembles ever formed by the Japanese giant of the avant-garde. Active since 2013, the Special Big Band is a gang of avant-garde ultras in a ludic incarnation. The group breaks all the existing, though unwritten, rules, shamelessly merging the winds’ extreme frolics with danceable rhythms, brazen guitar blocks with sugary tunes, as well as sophisticated jazz arrangements with piercing noise. Add to this mixture such gems of repertoire as pieces by Astor Piazzola and Charlie Haden. Yoshihide’s band proves that the avant-garde can be entertaining and entertainment can retain the propensity for discovery that is so characteristic for the avant-garde. An absolute must-see, particularly since the leader announced this autumn’s concerts to be the band’s last tour. Tomasz Gregorczyk

JazzKLUB / Urszula Dudziak, Big Band Śląski and guests / Nature of the bird

Sat, Oct 5, 2024, 19:30
Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Concert Hall (Katowice)
Urszula Dudziak (Voice), Grażyna Auguścik (Voice), Grzech Piotrowski (Saxophon), Mika Urbaniak (Voice)
She is not just an icon, and it's not just Papaya, although thanks to the song, it turned out that jazz is no longer niche. But scat is more than that. It's like creating a language, and fusion, or more precisely jazz rock, is something even more significant, a way of life. Perhaps that's good fortune because Urszula Dudziak has a bird-like nature – she changes places and regenerates on stage. However, she has opted for more than just scat; also for perfection of intonation, expanding the scale (five octaves!) and crossing musical barriers because, as she said, she has the strength of a highlander and is not afraid of confrontation. In this case, she confronts the balladic feel of Grażyna Auguścik and the mesmerising matte of the voice of Mika Urbaniak, i.e., her daughter, and the saxophone of Grzech Piotrowski, who proves that there are no genres that cannot be fused.
