Karolina Micor: Remembering Agnieszka Osiecka (All Souls’ Day Special)!

A past winner of the prestigious ‘Pamiętajmy o Osieckiej’ festival, Micor pairs Osiecka’s iconic poetry with contemporary jazz arrangements, rich harmonies, and spirited improvisation.

Backed by a stellar London-based rhythm section, the quartet breathes fresh, dynamic life into classics like ‘Niech żyje bal’, and ‘Zielono mi’, alongside poetic gems such as ‘Na całych jeziorach ty’, ‘Nie mów nic’ and ‘Uroda’.

An evening of timeless Polish songwriting reimagined through modern acoustic jazz.
