Slow, pretty piano trio stuff from Poland. These guys were backing Tomasz Stanko on his latest tour & CD, and ECM gave them a chance to show what they can do themselves. Mostly slow. Floating, lyrical stuff in a delicate atmosphere. Tracks range from abstract wandering (1,11) to standards-like jazz composing (6,8,10).

1- Slow and crystalline
2- Bjork cover. A midtempo ballad feel
3- Quiet start; gets grand and sweeping
4- Robust midtempo ballad, pretty intro chords
5- Cloying at first, then a gentle Jarrett-like solo space
6- Mid/fast, gently rolling, nice drive
7- Slow, pretty
8- Mid/fast gentle bop
9- Lotsa drum, plus a piano surge
10- Mid/fast bopping with a strong swing
11- Free wandering, slowish
12- Slowly tumbling; gets into a stronger jam later
13- Slow reprise of #1
