Adam Baldych,Leszek Możdżer • Passacaglia

 

Description from ACT Music (actmusic.com):
Passacaglia is a multi-colored musical dialogue between two unique characters who are leading figures in European jazz and contemporary music, Adam Baldych and Leszek Możdżer. The repertoire ranges from free improvisations over works co-written by the musicians themselves to their very personal interpretations of themes by Erik Satie, Josquin des Prez and others. The album features a highly unusual combination of instruments: a Renaissance violin, two grand pianos - one tuned to 442 Hz and the other 432 Hz - and a prepared upright piano. This setup allows an infinitely varied palette of musical expression, which defies styles, genres and even tonal and harmonic convention. The world that Baldych and Możdżer create is one of well-balanced beauty, expressed in the noble form of chamber music, but it is also one of turbulent and intensely emotional improvisation. Like all great art, it draws you in and leaves you intrigued at the same time - and also makes you want to come back and explore it all over again.

Descripcion de ACT Music (actmusic.com):
Passacaglia es un dialogo musical multicolor entre dos personalidades unicas que son figuras lideres del jazz europeo y la musica contemporanea, Adam Baldych y Leszek Możdżer. El repertorio va desde improvisaciones libres sobre obras coescritas por los propios musicos hasta sus interpretaciones muy personales de temas de Erik Satie, Josquin des Prez y otros. El album presenta una combinacion de instrumentos altamente inusual: un violin renacentista, dos pianos de cola (uno afinado a 442 Hz y el otro a 432 Hz) y un piano vertical preparado. Esta configuracion permite una paleta de expresion musical infinitamente variada, que desafia estilos, generos e incluso la convencion tonal y armonica. El mundo que crean Baldych y Możdżer es uno de belleza equilibrada, expresada en la noble forma de la musica de camara, pero tambien uno de improvisacion turbulenta e intensamente emocional. Como todo gran arte, te atrapa y te deja intrigado al mismo tiempo, y ademas te hace querer volver a explorarlo una y otra vez.
