Paweł Brodowski, Jazz Forum (Poland):
THE ANDRZEJ TRZASKOWSKI QUINTET "Polish Jazz vol. 4 (1965)" (Polskie Nagrania/Warner Music Poland)

Remastered and rereleased now on CD and vinyl "The Andrzej Trzaskowski Quintet" is considered one of the milestones of  Polish Jazz. Composer, arranger, pianist and bandleader was in his time a figure of equal importance as Krzysztof Komeda. This album, recorded one year before Komeda’s “Astigmatic” and featuring young trumpeter Tomasz Stanko, is an example of his visionary conception that expanded the frontiers of European jazz.
