Jachna Tarwid Karch is: Wojciech Jachna (born 1979) on trumpet, Grzegorz Tarwid (born 1994) on piano and Albert Karch (born 1993) on drums.
Inspired by classical masters including Szostakowicz, Debussy and Ravel this distinctive trio has recently released one of the most critically acclaimed jazz albums of 2014. Their music reaches deep into classical heritage; however, thanks to the exceptional awareness of contemporary styles it becomes actual and powerful. Carefully structured pieces are brought to life by brave, improvisational practices – enclosed within a romantic narration and touching soundscapes.
