The Genius of Jazz
The Best of Krzysztof Komeda
more details

"The Genius of Krzysztof Komeda" compilation includes the most comprehensive collection of Komeda's compositions, jazz tunes, and motion picture themes found on soundtracks from cult movies like "Knife in the Water", "Cul-de-sac", and "Rosemary's Baby". On recordings from this album, Komeda is accompanied by many of his long time collaborators, including Bernt Rosengren, Roman Dylag, Michal Urbaniak, and his most famous apprentice - Tomasz Stanko. A special guest appearance by the band from the contemporary Polish Jazz scene - Simple Acoustic Trio, proves once again that Komeda's music is still alive, continuing to inspire new artists and conquering new hordes of listeners, many decades after Komeda's tragically early death.
