Przemysław Strączek – jazz guitarist, composer, producer and band leader. Graduate of the Karol Szymanowski Academy of Music in Katowice, honoured with, among others, the Special Award of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage (2013) and the Award of the Marshal of the Silesian Voivodeship in the field of music (2015). For over two decades, he has consistently pursued his own artistic path, based on dialogue between cultures, styles and personalities. Searches in the sphere of music take place on many levels: in the approach to harmony, aesthetics, sound or tone colour. The sum of these new perspectives is reflected in the recordings – each subsequent album becomes a mosaic composed of different traditions that enter into relations with each other and create a dialogic musical language. His album Fig Tree gained wide recognition: the British-French portal Jazz Fuel recognized it as one of the best European jazz albums of 2020, and the vinyl edition was ranked 4th among the best-selling vinyl records in Poland (according to ZPAV).
