Latest recordings and performances:
In spring of 2005 Andrzej performed on a tour in France, and toured Russia and Ukraine, as well as performed in Poland. More recently, Andrzej concerted as invited guest, and performed solo in Warsaw.
In 2006, he started recording with Darek Galon and invited guests for their new album. Recording finished in mid 2007, and this new album "Songs For Stubborn Kids" (with texts by famous Polish children's writer Jan Brzechwa) was released by known Polish label Fonografika before Christmas 2007.
Also in 2007, Andrzej played numerous concerts, solo, duo and with various groups - in Poland and United Kingdom, and recorded more jazzy pieces with Derek Galon from Canada.
2008 - After pop--rock-jazz popular production for the last album, Andrzej recorded material for a new, more difficult record addressed to jazz connoisseurs. It is duo with Michal Zduniak, fine Polish drummer. Andrzej's playing reminds here a bit of Metheny's Zero Tolerance - as both musicians explore free forms, with almost telepathic understanding of each other. This record will be released in 2008, and Andrzej also plans more recordings with Canadian musicians - in yet another style...
Also 2008 New album "Here We Go" in smooth jazz style with accents of light funk is being released by the label Fonografika in Poland. This fine recording, done with Funk Collective group and a special guest - Bill Evans (sax) is already gaining quick popularity.
