One of the most esteemed Polish artists, Grzegorz Turnau, joins forces with the renowned Atom String Quartet to present listeners with a repertoire in a completely new rendition. New material and legendary classics arranged based on the sound of piano and strings. A new depth in Turnau's timeless works - this is what can be expected from the upcoming concert.
Grzegorz Turnau has been continuously present on stage for 40 years. He has released 16 albums with his own repertoire and 3 albums interpreting works by other artists. He has participated as a guest in many recording and concert projects, collaborating with numerous soloists, instrumentalists, and orchestras.
He debuted at the XX Student Song Festival in Krakow (1984) with the song Znów wędrujemy (to the poem by K.K. Baczyński), where he won the first prize. Invited by Piotr Skrzynecki to Piwnica pod Baranami, he performed there for 13 years. He also participated as a guest in many projects, the most important of which are: Nieszpory Ludźmierskie (1992) and Droga, życie, miłość (2000) by J.K. Pawluśkiewicz and L.A. Moczulskiego.
Grzegorz Turnau is also the author of theatrical and film music. Together with his band, he has played nearly 3000 concerts so far, which enjoy unwavering interest from listeners who appreciate original and artistic stage form.
Atom String Quartet is one of the most intriguing string quartets in the world, belonging to the group of the best jazz performers in Poland. The band combines the possibilities of a string quartet with broadly understood improvisation. In its work - apart from jazz - one can hear inspirations from Polish folklore, music from various regions of the world,
as well as contemporary and classical music.
The quartet has recorded seven original albums, two of which received the Polish recording industry's 'Fryderyk' award. In 2023, Atom String Quartet signed an exclusive contract with the international record label Warner Music, resulting in a 2-CD album titled UNIVERSUM, which consists of 4 multi-part string quartets composed by each of the band's musicians. The album premiered in January 2024.
The musicians of Atom String Quartet are regularly invited to participate in recording sessions of other musicians, collaborating with leading Polish and foreign artists and orchestras.
