"To adapt the great masters of classical music into jazz is extremely difficult, if one doesn`t want to betray their works. It takes a great pianist and a great musician to succeed in such a task. That is absolutely the case with Andrzej Jagodzinski, who has passed this test beyond any doubt, with all necessary mastery , and made this record one of the most perfect achievements of the genre".

Welcome to the world of our music. Our world. Different to that of the end of 20th century. Without a violence, without clamour, here you are not exposed to the smell of a traffic jam. DEEP CUT. We cut ourselves off. Moving to a woodland clearing. As dusk falls the last rays of the sunshine at sunset. Smell of wet grass. Night. The descent is begining. GOING DOWN. It is becoming unquiet. Everybody fears the night. In its quiet nostalgia awakenes. Longing for something, for somebody… As for DJANGO. Only loneliness remains. LONESOME DANCER. And dawn breaks, and space opens up again. Bird song. WALK IN SPACE. Maybe even a dance. PETITE VALSE BRILLANTE. It’s a pity to leave a pensive Mr B. jagodzinski.art.pl

Witaj w świecie naszej muzyki. Naszym świecie. Innym niż ten z końca XX wieku. Bez przemocy, bez hałasu. Zapach korków ulicznych Ci tu nie grozi. DEEP CUT. Głębokie cięcie. Odcinamy się. Przenosimy na leśną polanę. W zapadającym zmierzchu ostatnie promienie zachodzącego słońca. Zapach wilgotnej trawy. Noc. Rozpoczyna się lot w dół. GOING DOWN. Robi się troche niespokojnie. Nocy boi się każdy. Bo w jej ciszy najczęściej budzi się nostalgia. Tęsknota za czymś. Za kimś… jak za DJANGO. Pozostaje już tylko samotność. LONESOME DANCER. I wstaje świt. I znów otwiera sie przestrzeń. śpiew ptaków. WALK IN SPACE. Spacer w przestrzeni. Może nawet taniec. PETITE VALSE BRILLANTE. I trochę żal zostawić zadumanego pana B. ---jagodzinski.art.pl

Andrzej Jagodzinski Trio – Chopin (1994)

2010-08-23T09:01:18Z

Andrzej Jagodzinski Trio – Chopin (1994)


1. Prelude in E minor 		
2. Etude in A minor 		
3. Polonaise in C sharp minor 		
4. Mazurka in F minor 		
5. Prelude in C minor 		
6. Waltz in D flat major 		
7. Prelude in E minor

Personnel:
* Andrzej Jagodzinski: piano
* Adam Cegielski: bass
* Czeslaw "Maly" Bartkowski: drums

If Chopin really was a composer for the right hand only, as Wagner grouchily complained, then perhaps Andrzej Jagodzinski has provided a missing accompaniment. These are not jazzed-up interpretations of Chopin compositions but a set of jazz originals inspired by the great Pole's most evocative pieces. While Jagodzinski takes the melodic and harmonic heart of the Waltz in D flat major, more often he takes nothing more than a mood, or a vague musical shape, and erects his own structure on top of it. As an act of homage, it is profoundly impressive and beautifully executed.

Interestingly and significantly, the Waltz is the only major-key piece in the set. The remainder have a more sombre and questioning tonality that often does - cliché though it is - suggest the blues. The Etude in A-minor has a dark and brooding quality that suggest Tchaikovsky at his most introspective, as is the Polonaise in C minor the key of the 'Moonlight' Sonata's opening movement and of Rachmaninov's darkest Prelude. The C minor Preludefalls almost ideally under fingers for piano player and it is here, about midwaythrough the set and just after the hokey Mazurka, that Jagodzinski really pulls out the stops (wrong keyboard metaphor, I know) and creates a performance of genuine intellectual and emotional penetration. What follows, the Waltz and reprise of the opening E minor Prelude, is inevitably an anti-climax.

In a famous review of the 1930s, the great Neville Cardus suggested that modern piano players had streamlined and polished what was essentially raw and emotional music, turning it into something befitting a conservatory recital hall rather than a concert in the true sense. Jagodzinski and his colleague bassist Adam Cegielski and drummer Czeslaw Bartkowski have made a fascinating piece of music in its own right, but they have also suggested new - or rather old - ways of listening to Chopin. His work is, after all, the acme of piano music and there is a straight line from it to Tatum and Bud Powell, even perhaps Cecil Taylor, Keith Jarrett, and beyond. That lineage makes this an important recording. --- Brian Morton, jagodzinski.art.pl

Though crazy as it may seem, this idea is perfectly sustained, not only at the level of musical expression but mostly at the level of a certain common creation: the beautiful romantic interpretations, very much acclaimed in the jazz movement, meet in a real jazz ecstasy, Giovanni Mirabassi, the Italian pianist virtuoso, as expressive as he is creative and whose popularity is triumphing today in France. This very unusual instrumental alliance does not obey any common jazz sonority. The music flows, profound as well as catchy, sensitive and striking… Polish and Parisian at the same time, it contains Italian melodic elements, a touch of French romanticism and – surprisingly- a lightness a noble character already present in « Jazz Chopin » by Jagodzinski… All this probably stems from Giovanni Mirabassi’s compositions, perfectly conceived and magnificently interpreted… and whose Italian melodic line seems childishly simple but its rhythmical structure is in fact extremely complex. The beauty of this smooth music reminds us of the importance of melody… and the peace it can bring us in this world so often disturbed by troubling noises. This unequaled musical sensibility by Jagodzinski and Mirabassi let us hope for a new encounter between the two artists. Mirabassi’s spontaneity brings a new energy in the trio Jagodzinski-Barthowski-Cegielski. A rare type of encounter between two musical worlds: the subtlety of the composer and the perfect interpretation of the musicians mix with penetrating enthusiasm and coherence. ---Dionizy Piatkowski, Jazz Encyclopedia
