about

The debut album of the Polish band Amalia Umeda Quartet features illustrative, improvisational music inspired by the power and beauty of nature, the rawness and authenticity of folk music, and the various emotional states of human existence.

The band is composed of Amalia Umeda, Franciszek Raczkowski, Michał Aftyka and Michał Szeligowski. These are four musical personas, which during collaborative improvisation blend into each other. Their main purpose when creating music together is openness to new solutions - textural, temporal, and interpretative.

All compositions featured on the album are written by the lead, initially consisting of a thrifty outline of ideas, allowing all four musicians to give these pieces a unique shape, character, and form during each performance. They explore new possibilities of interpretation and ensemble depending on the current moment, the mood, the acoustics of the room, as well as the energy of the audience.

The album is co-produced by Polskie Radio Program 2. Amalia Umeda Quartet has been selected to represent Poland in the first edition of the Europe Creative project: Footprints Europe program initiated by Périscope (Lyon, France) and the Wytwórnia Foundation (Łódź, Poland).
