Maciej Fortuna / Krzysztof Dys: Tropy
by Karl Ackermann
It remains largely unrecognized that the Polish jazz culture predates Louis Armstrong's “invention" of modern improvised jazz. As early as 1923, Polish jazz musicians were touring Eastern Europe in the company of Chicago and New Orleans Dixieland players.

A tall task, but saxophonist Dave Rempis has made the jump from ...

The forty-minute suite is divided conveniently, and perhaps whimsically, into eight ...
