Nahorny revels its sound, its strength, weight, color and expressiveness. Sound in isolation and against the background of daily noises, Sound in context of jazz and jazz i the context of the sound.

About: Pianist, saxophonist, flautist, arranger and film composer, Polish Jazz legend Wlodzimierz Nahorny was born in 1941 in Radzyn Podlaski and made his debut on stage in 1959 with his own quartet "Little Four". The ubiquitous Nahorny is to be found on many of the most important Polish jazz recordings and similarly graced many a star-studded festival line-up throughout Europe, U.S. & Asia during the sixties and seventies; especially at Warsaw's Jazz Jamboree Festival. In 1965 his trio debuted at "Jazz nad Odra" festival and immediately gained national recognition and critical acclaim. The trio recorded an important, free jazz album for Polish Jazz Series tiled "Heart" (Polish Jazz vol.15). In 1966 Nahorny received (from the hands of Duke Ellington himself) a prestigious modern jazz laureate award at the jazz competition in Vienna, Austria. Later on he successfully collaborated with many major Polish Jazz leaders, including Andrzej Kurylewicz, Krzysztof Sadowski, Andrzej Trzaskowski and Jan Ptaszyn Wroblewski. During the late 1960s he also teamed up and recorded with legendary Polish prog-rock group Breakout, and later on with progressive jazz vocalist Marianna Wroblewska, singer Lucja Prus and group Novi Singers. In his musical interest Nahorny often reached beyond the jazz field; he is a very successful pop music composer and an author of one of the greatest Polish pop song ever - "Jej Portret". Despite his successes in pop music field, especially important in his songbook is a series of works inspired by the music of Polish composer Karol Szymanowski. Another filed of Nahorny's artistic expressions are his soundtracks for motion and TV pictures.
