POLSK JAZZBESØG – PÅ VEJ
MOD KULTURHOVEDSTAD 2017
Aarhus Jazz Festival er på banen med forberedelserne til fejring af Aarhus
som Europæisk Kulturhovedstad 2017 med projekt polsk jazz på Atlas
Navnene er: Adam Baldych Quartet. Den 27-årige violinist
Adam Baldych bor i New York, men spiller jævnligt med sin polske
kvartet, der for første gang kommer til Aarhus. Som 11-årig begyndte
Adam Baldych at spille violin inspireret af Rakhmaninov, Chopin og
Tjajkovskij, og han vandt adskillige priser. 13 år gammel besluttede
han sig for jazzen, som 16-årig turnerede han i Europa og Asien og
blev efterfølgende optaget på Berklee College of Music i Boston.
Siden turnerede han med Jim Beard, Didier Lockwood, Pierre
Blanchard samt Jerry Goodman og har indspillet med sangeren Mika
Urbianski. Med sit band Damage Control vandt han international
opmærksomhed.
Baldych har sammen med pianisten Leszek Mozdzer* skrevet
filmmusik til stumfilmen ”Herr Arnes pengar” af den svenske instruktør
Mauritz Stiller. I 2012 indspillede han albummet ”Imaginary Room”
med Lars Danielsson, Morten Lund, Jacob Karlzon, Verneri Pohjola
og Marius Neset. Baldych har fået tilnavnet ”Evil” for sin djævelske
virtuositet, udtryksfuldhed og det foranderlige i sit violinspil.
*Leszek Mozdzer kan opleves ved koncerterne med Cæcilie Norby i
Musikhuset Aarhus og Maltfabrikken, Ebeltoft.
POLISH JAZZ VISIT - ON THE WAY
TOWARD CULTURE CAPITAL 2017
Performing at Atlas are: Adam Baldych Quartet. 27-year-old
violinist Adam Baldych lives in New York, but plays regularly with his
Polish quartet that is coming to Aarhus for the first time. At age 11
Adam Baldych began playing violin, inspired by Rachmaninoff, Chopin
and Tchaikovsky, and he won various prizes. At age 13 he decided to
play jazz and at age 16 toured Europe and Asia, after which he was

Mauritz Stiller. In 2012 he recorded the album, ”Imaginary Room”,
with Lars Danielsson, Morten Lund, Jacob Karlzon, Verneri Pohjola

his devilish virtuosity, expressiveness and the variability of his violin
playing.

Warsaw Village Band. Anmeldere kalder dem Polens svar på The
Pogues, det irsk-engelsk keltiske punkband fra 1982. Nu kommer de
omsider til Aarhus.
Warsaw Village Band er symbolet på ung, intelligent østeuropæisk
musik, der kombinerer tradition med moderne elementer. Orkesteret tog
rundt til landsbyer for at opsøge den oprindelige folklore, før den blev
glemt, og har kombineret den med rock og electronic til en smuk og
varieret lyd med tre vokaler i front.
I 2004 modtog bandet BBC World Music Award og i 2006 den
polske grammy Frederik Award. BBC producerede herefter et 60
minutters portræt af orkesteret, der blev vist i adskillige europæiske
lande. New York Times har kaldt Warsaw Village Band et af de vigtigste
orkestre på world music-scenen og beskrevet musikken som ”the
sound of globalisation”.
Warsaw Village Band er i dag det mest succesfulde østeuropæiske
orkester, der ikke er mainstream.
Tak til Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Copenhagen og Fonden
Aarhus 2017 for støtte til projektet.

With the project, Polish Jazz at Atlas, Aarhus Jazz Festival has
already begun preparing to celebrate Aarhus as Europe’s Culture Capital 2017
The Warsaw Village Band. The critics call them Poland’s answer to
The Pogues, the Irish-British Celtic punk band from 1982. Now, at long
last, they’re coming to Aarhus.
The Warsaw Village Band is the symbol of young, intelligent Eastern
European music that combines tradition with modern elements. The
group travelled around to Polish villages to seek out the original
folklore before it was forgotten, and have combined it with rock and
electronics to make a beautiful and varied sound that includes three
vocal parts.
In 2004 the band was given the BBC World Music Award, and in
2006 it received the Frederik Award, the Polish Grammy. The BBC
also produced a 60-minute portrait of the group that was shown in a
number of European countries. The New York Times has called the
Warsaw Village Band one of the most important bands on the worldmusic
scene, describing the music as ”the sound of globalisation”.
Today the Warsaw Village Band is the most successful nonmainstream
Eastern European group.
Many thanks to the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in
Copenhagen and Udviklingspuljen Fonden Aarhus 2017 for their
support of the project.
