About:
Sun Ship was one of the most interesting bands on the Polish Jazz scene of the late 70's and early 80's. The band combined young rhythm section of pianist Adzik Sendecki, bass player Vitold Rek, and drummer Marek Stach; with more matured saxophone players: Henryk Miskiewicz and Zbigniew Jaremko. Miskiewicz and Jaremko were coming from a very popular during the 70's straight-ahead modern jazz band Jazz Carriers known for their "polyrhythmic and polymeric structures and an experimental usage of meters" (Daniel Best). Sendecki, Stach and Rek were "graduates" of Extra Ball with their youthful fascination with jazz rock rhythms. Despite different inspirations, the music of Sun Ship was very cohesive, attractive, very "colorful", and very well received by the fans and concert goers. The original repertoire which was created by the members of the band complemented group's uniqueness and adventuress. The role of the musical creation was emphasized by Adzik Sendecki in the interview with Jazz Forum in March 1980: "Our music is mostly defined by composition. The final shape of the tune is determined who wrote it and what his interests are". Interestingly all members of the band shared common interest in Polish musical folk tradition.
