Complete your Tomasz Stanko Quartet collection. Stanko began working with Marcin Wasilewski, Slawomir Kurkiewicz, and Michal Miskiewicz on film work back in the mid 1990s, and the relationship has blossomed into an amazing jazz quartet. One of the most stunning things about this album how the beauty has not faded after multiple listenings; I am still struck by the openess and breathing room that these musicians work with and create.

When Tomasz Stanko first started working with a trio of Polish teenagers in 1994 - Marcin Wasilewski, piano; Slawomir Kurkiewicz, bass; Michal Miskiewicz, drums - on film projects and live gigs inside his native land, he might have glimpsed, but surely never fully conceived of, the sound that the quartet's relationship would offer a decade later. Suspended Night, on ECM, follows the hugely successful Soul of Things on the same label

Artist: Tomasz Stanko Quartet Album: Suspended Night Genre: Avant-Garde Jazz Label: ECM Released: 2003 Quality: FLAC (image+. cue) Tracklist: Song For Sarah (5:30). Suspended Variation I (8:52).

Polish trumpeter Tomasz Stanko turns in one of the finest efforts of his four-decade career with Suspended Night, an album that can only be described as haunting and gorgeous. It is one of those rare discs able to reach any level of listener, from casual types who will find his seductive tone ideal background fodder to purists able to appreciate a stunning depth that all but demands multiple playbacks. Stanko, 61, built his reputation as a free jazz and avant-garde player, and he works those elements here with deceptive and devastating effectiveness. At only four-and-a-half minutes long, it’s a great introduction to the concept of free jazz for someone unable to grasp the more marathon avant-garde indulgences out there.

TOMASZ STAŃKO - Suspended Night. Filed under Post-Fusion Contemporary By TOMASZ STAŃKO. Trumpeter Tomasz Stanko returned to the ECM label in the early 1990s and released a few experimental albums that didn't attract much attention. Everyone took notice in 2002 with the release of Soul of Things, where he introduced his new quartet (Marcin Wasilewski, piano, Slawomir Kurkiewicz, double bass, Michal Miskiewicz, drums/cymbals) on 13 lively, adventurous but unnamed tracks. Much deeper and broader in scope, Suspended Night not only fulfills the potential indicated by the previous album, but also escapes into entirely new and different directions. Only very rarely does 69:07 pass.

It's always nice to listen to an artist whom you have never heard of, and be completely knocked off your feet. That's what happened to me when I found this album by Tomasz Stanko. First I thought to myself, what an interesting name, and, wow, all of the other guys on this album have names that I can barely pronounce. Then, I saw that it was on ECM, one of my favorite labels to find new, cutting edge jazz. Well, these soon became afterthoughts, because I popped the album in my CD player and was immediatetly struck by the beauty of the music being created by the Tomasz Stanko quartet.Tomasz Stanko, who I have since done some research on (and have already started looking at other albums of his), is from Poland, and decided to work with some younger teenagers from his homeland. Stanko began working with Marcin Wasilewski, Slawomir Kurkiewicz, and Michal Miskiewicz on film work back in the mid 1990s, and the relationship has blossomed into an amazing jazz quartet. One of the most stunning things about this album how the beauty has not faded after multiple listenings; I am still struck by the openess and breathing room that these musicians work with and create. Stanko, who wrote all of the songs, has chosen to work with an intelligent performers who are shaping how jazz can, and will be conceived. Wasilewski's piano playing is one of my favorite attributes of the album (and this group), his harmonizations are interesting and push jazz forward; and it reminds me of Bill Evans most of all. Stanko's trumpet playing floats effortlessly above the wash of colors that his rhythm section offers him; he creates a dark, mysterious tone with his horn which interweaves with the sparceness of the ensemble.The opening ballad, "Song for Sarah," is a beautiful song which rises out of the myst and is driven by compelling harmonies. The Suspend Night Variations, which fill out the rest of the album, are a canvas of laid-back, flowing, sometimes mysterious, and always beautiful jazz work. The interplay between these musicians is of a high caliber and the music seems to just flow out of everyone to create a wonderful collage of sounds that are extremely pleasing to listen to. This music moves in slow arcs and subtleties, which ultimately gives meaning to the title of the album and can leave the listener feeling slightly "suspended." I recommend this album to any Jazz listener, but especially to those who are seeking where jazz is headed, and the artists who have their finger on the pulse of modern music.
