Leszek Możdżer, piano (more info)

"Możdżer, one of the greatest piano virtuosos" - Frankfurter Allgemeine (Germany)

"One of the greatest revelation of jazz, the most outstanding improviser, versatile musician, endowed with exceptional music imagination; an artist, who has gained ambitious audience in favour of music.
Improvisations on the themes by Chopin have further strengthened his position of the artist and ranked him among the most outstanding individualities and virtuosos of the European jazz."

Andrzej Jagodziński Trio (more info)

"Jagodzinski in his genre, is a pianist truly touched by a stroke of genius. With an ability of playing beyond the piano - a characteristic of the jazz masters - and accompanied by two excellent musicians, he develops elements of Chopin's forms into fascinating jazz compositions.
The recording of the disc "Chopin", played by the Jagodzinski Trio goes beyond all experimentation done in jazz or pseudo-jazz with Chopin's music. It is a high-level, splendid piece of work and, a masterpiece of jazz improvisation in the classic-modern style." Bohdan Pociej Jazz Forum
