Passacaglia is a multi-colored musical dialogue between two unique
characters who are leading figures in European jazz and contemporary
music, Adam BaÅdych and Leszek Możdżer. The repertoire ranges from
free improvisations over works co-written by the musicians themselves to
their very personal interpretations of themes by Erik Satie, Josquin des
Prez and others.
The album features a highly unusual combination of instruments: a Renaissance violin, two grand pianos - one tuned to 442 Hz and the other 432
Hz - and a prepared upright piano. This setup allows an infinitely varied
palette of musical expression, which defies styles, genres and even tonal
and harmonic convention.
The world that BaÅdych and Możdżer create is one of well-balanced
beauty, expressed in the noble form of chamber music, but it is also one
of turbulent and intensely emotional improvisation. Like all great art, it
draws you in and leaves you intrigued at the same time - and also makes
you want to come back and explore it all over again.
