Pauli Lyytinen: tenor saxophone
Maciej Garbowski: double-bass
Krzysztof Gradziuk: drums
Recorded live on 23rd of August 2019 at Institute of Music Performance, Katowice
Young Finnish saxophone player Pauli Lyytinen and famous Polish improvisers Maciej Garbowski on bass and Krzysztof Gradziuk on drums (both known as members of piano trio RGG - the most creative trio band, probably not only in Poland) in their first-time musical meeting. Music without unnecessary sound, touching what is the most important thing in creation. Sharp like a sword, unique, clear, straight and intensive.
"Ability to improvise is the driving force in human nature. To be able to create something new, one needs to improvise. While improvising we operate outside the box and use some of our unused brain capacity (which is according to many scientists overwhelming 90% of our total capacity). In musical improvisation you have very similar parameters as in life in general, to be able to succeed you need to trust and listen to each other and understand the big picture by learning new things all the time. That said, I was privileged to get to know and play together with these two great Polish improvisers, Maciej and Krzysztof on a warm late summer evening in Katowice. Magical things happened on this beautiful first encounter. I´m especially happy by the variety of tunes, sounds and textures we created during our session."

"Młody fiński saksofonista Pauli Lyytinen i znani polscy improwizatorzy Maciej Garbowski i Krzysztof Gradziuk (obaj znani jako członkowie tria fortepianowego RGG - najbardziej kreatywnego trio, prawdopodobnie nie tylko w Polsce), podczas pierwszego muzycznego spotkania. Muzyka bez zbędnego dźwięku, dotykająca tego, co w kreacji najważniejsze. Ostry jak miecz, wyjątkowy, czysty, prosty i intensywny." opis pochodzi od wydawcy
