The Atom String Quartet is one of the most intriguing
string quartets in the world, and also one of best Polish jazz bands. The group
combines the capabilities of a string quartet (i.e. two violins, viola and
cello) with improvisation in its broad sense.
The set of instruments of a chamber music ensemble, which
is most classic and firmly established in music tradition, enables the artists
to search for new sound and formal achievements. It is difficult to define, in
an explicit way, the music style of the group. Its music output, besides jazz,
shows sources of inspiration coming from Polish folk, music of various regions
of the world, and also contemporary and classical music.
Cost: $35
