    paper Split Personality

    This is a double album. The first side, Theatre, is made up of original jazz material.
    The second side, Zawsze Tam Gdzie Ty, is a collection of Polish pop and rock songs which showcases my arranging abilities, in the swing idiom. All the tunes were arranged in various swing styles.

    paper Wariatka (Crazy Girl)

    Kamil Abt’s sixth album, “CRAZY GIRL” evolved out of the interaction in stage performance. The musicians involved were inspired by poetry about emotions and the constant need to be loved. Do people lost in their everyday routines and worries need anything else, she asks, and what more do artists and those in love need, aside from approval?

    As both the lyrics and music attest, the songs on WARIATKA (i.e. Crazy Girl) are characterised by an
    impulsiveness which mirrors artistic creativity and vulnerability. At once fawning and shouting, the lyrics race
    around or stop suddenly. Sometimes the music cuts them off abruptly or abandons them completely, sounding
    out strongly on its own. At other times it complements them romantically, releasing wisps of melody and
    colourful moods. As such, the songs on CRAZY GIRL are similar to love itself: “stormy, fiery, effervescent like
    snow. Like you and me and the eternal sun. Without it, there is no life!”

    Initially performed live at concerts and poetry recitals, all of the songs on the album are the fruit of the artists’
    openness and playfulness. Thanks to Kamil Abt’s arrangements and the musical imaginations of the performers, they have taken on a completely new character, unconstrained by oft-trodden canons and styles.

    With CRAZY GIRL, Kamil Abt (guitarist; present in both Australia and Poland) has built a bridge between
    nations. Walking along it on the Australian side are Teresa Podemska-Abt (lyricist/poet), Ewa Paradowska
    (composer) and Jerzy Syrek (composer). On the Polish side, there is Piotr Szwec (saxophone), Katarzyna
    Mirowska (vocals), Andrzej Michalak (bass) and Przemek Michalak (drums). All of them are connected by a
    desire for artistic interaction, subtle dynamic sensibilities, temperamental characters and a longing for romantic dreams and melancholy moods. The bonds between them will undoubtedly open up listeners’ hearts and senses, making it possible to transcend boundaries and recall what it means to love and be loved.
