On behalf of the MMusic Foundation and the Jazzy Tiel Festival’s organizers we invite you to a concert of Anna Maria Jopek, which will be held on November 2, 2013 at 8.00 p.m., during the Jazzy Tiel Festival.
Anna Maria Jopek will present materials from her album “Polanna”. Folk music has surrounded her since she was a child: her parents, for example, were members of the world famous folk band Mazowsze. Marcin Kydryński, the singer’s producer and husband, writes how he has always regarded styles like the Portuguese fado, the Spanish flamenco or the Brazilian samba with some envy. He notices that these styles have become immensely popular not because of their original form, but thanks to great modern artists that have studied traditional themes and used them as inspiration. Much like Anna Maria Jopek. The music that will be performed during the evening forms the essence of Polish music. At the theatre in Tiel we will hear jazz-interpretations of XVI-century works and hymns from the XVIII century. There will be pieces by the great Polish composers from the early XX century, but songs of WWII partisans and scouts as well; songs that have been sung around campfires by generations.
All of these in amazing arrangements and the best renditions. The greatest hits of the singer’s extensive discography won’t be overlooked either.
Anna Maria Jopek will perform that night accompanied by some of the best Polish musicians:
Krzysztof Herdzin: duduk, vocals, piano
Cezary Konrad: drums
Robert Kubiszyn: contrabass, acoustic bass guitar
Marek Napiórkowski: acoustic and classical guitar
Pedro Nazaruk: vocals, zither, flute, dulcimer
And the very next day, November 3, 2013 at 4.00 p.m., one more concert awaits you. Polish singer – Anka Kozieł accompanied by pianist Michael Vanoucka will present the material from her latest album “Tales of the forest”. The concert is a part of Sunday’s Jan Dorlon Huisconcerten in Tiel.
It is going to be an unusual, Polish weekend in the Netherlands – feel invited!
