Tomasz Stanko Quartet: Lontano

Read "Lontano" reviewed by Budd Kopman


Can a recording be appreciated or understood without knowing the full history of the performer? The answer is, of course, yes and no. In this case, yes, the music on Lontano creates a coherent sound world, has an artistic point of view and many levels, and thus is well worth repeated listens. But no, you'll be ...

Tomasz Stanko Quartet: Lontano

Read "Lontano" reviewed by Chris May


The Beatles got it wrong. When you're 64, Lennon & McCartney predicted, you'll be ready for the knackers yard. But the lovable moptops were only in their twenties then, like Polish trumpeter Tomasz Stanko, and each had already changed the shape of things, the Beatles with “She Loves You" (1963), Stanko on Astigmatic (1965). It was ...

Tomasz Stanko Quartet: Lontano

Read "Lontano" reviewed by John Kelman


Other bands have been around for longer than Polish trumpeter Tomasz Stańko's current quartet, but few have exhibited such palpable growth in so little time. While Suspended Night (ECM, 2004) showed considerable development from the quartet's first release, Soul of Things (ECM, 2002), Lontano represents a major shift towards free playing that these albums only hinted ...

Tomasz Stanko: Wolnosc w Sierpniu (Freedom in August)

Read "Wolnosc w Sierpniu (Freedom in August)" reviewed by John Kelman


Trumpeter Tomasz Stańko has found increasing international exposure in recent years due to a string of fine ECM recordings, including Leosia (1997), Litania (1997) and Suspended Night (2004). But while his reappearance on the international scene is relatively recent, he has a perhaps not-so-surprisingly considerable discography released only in his native Poland, which ranges from Bosonossa ...

Tomasz Stanko

Read "Tomasz Stanko" reviewed by Budd Kopman


Trumpeter and composer Tomasz Stanko (b. 1942 Rzeszow, Poland) was present at the birth of modern European jazz. He's most closely associated with the man who was at the center of seemingly all art forms in Poland in the late 1950s and early 1960s, Krzysztof Komeda. Although his early work has been described, even by himself, ...

His first US tour in support of the disc brought rave reviews, both in terms of the further solidification of Stanko's unique style and for the discovery ...
