Anyone ever hear of Tomasz Stanko Quartet? Jazz


A friend of mine played a few cuts of his new cd "suspended night" and it sounded very good. I never heard anyone discuss his music before. Allmusic.com has a pretty good write-up about him, his music style and his new cd. I thought I would check here to see if the jazz collective ever heard of him.

Thanks for looking,

Thanks for the info. Since I liked the "suspended night" and purchased it, I will look at purchasing "soul of thing" and "matka joanna" to go deeper into his music projects. I find it truely amazing that he is one of those best kept secrets in the jazz world. In Europe he is probably well known and has a large fan base.

Ordering now,

I have the same Soul of Thing. Good album. You should try it. Polish - and as many others Polish jazz musicians he is very good.

Enjoy
I just got his "Soul of Things" cd on a 'goner's recommendation and I love it. I'm gonna check out some of your recommendations as well.
Haven't heard half the discs he's put out (more than 20), but really like the ones i've got. All the ECM releases sound great, it's kind of hard to find a bad record w/Jon Christensen, Anders Jormin, Bobo Stenson, Terje Rypdal, Edward Vesala or Tony Oxley, but so far Matka Joanna (1995) is my favorite Stanko release.
