Jazztopad Festival presents:
Rising star trumpeter/composer Piotr Damasiewicz has performed with Phil Minton, Paal Nilssen-Love, and Samuel Blaser. A Fryderyk (Polish Grammy) winner, Damasiewicz has assembled a stellar band to pay tribute to prolific and charismatic Polish jazz icon Tomasz ‘Szakal’ Szukalski, who passed away in 2012. A major force in European jazz since the 1960’s, Szakal appeared on over 100 albums, and performed with Tomasz Sta?ko, Dave Holland, Terje Rypdal, and legendary Polish progressive rock band SBB.
Thanks to the Jazztopad Festival - presented in partnership with the Polish Cultural Institute in New York.
