The group&#8217;s third album&nbsp;<em>Weird Heaven<\/em>&nbsp;will premiere live at Dizzy&#8217;s Club during the Jazztopad Festival. Their albums&nbsp;<em>Product Placement<\/em>&nbsp;(2018) and&nbsp;<em>Popular Music<\/em>&nbsp;(2016) were nominated for a Polish Fryderyk award (comparable to the Grammy) in their respective years. The band performs Piotrowicz\u2019s own compositions, blending elements of jazz, contemporary music, Polish folklore, and minimalism. The sextet includes trumpeter Tomasz Dabrowski, alto saxophonist Kuba Wiecek, tenor saxophonist Piotr Checki, bassist Andrzej Swies, and drummer Krzysztof Szmanda. The Sextet will perform at Dizzy\u2019s Club on June 21 and 22.

The Quartet began a partnership with Jazztopad over a decade ago and remains an essential part of the festival\u2019s commission program. The most recent commission from Jazztopad is a piece written for saxophone and the Lutos\u0142awski Quartet by the celebrated tenor saxophonist&nbsp;<strong>James Brandon Lewis<\/strong>. The piece, the composer\u2019s first writing including strings, was premiered in Poland last year and will get its US premiere at Dizzy\u2019s Club Coca Cola on June 21 and 22.

Jazz at Lincoln Center director of programming Jason Olaine attended the 2014 Festival in Poland. The Wroclaw festival impressed Olaine, and a deal was struck to bring a taste of Jazztopad to Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York. Launched at Dizzy\u2019s Club Coca Cola, Jazztopad New York continued to expand over the next five years, spreading to several illustrious venues throughout the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jazztopad artistic director Piotr Turkiewicz has been steadfast in his efforts to introduce to New York Polish creative music scene. Turkiewicz has also focused on facilitating cross-cultural exchanges with musicians from other countries. An important element in this has been the commissioning of original works from visiting artists who then premiere their pieces at a Wroclaw performance. Commissions have included high-profile artists, including Charles Lloyd, Wayne Shorter, Vijay Iyer, Jason Moran, Uri Caine, and&nbsp;James Brandon Lewis.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-11.32.34-AM-1024x156.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6038\" width=\"705\" height=\"106\" srcset=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-11.32.34-AM-1024x156.png 1024w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-11.32.34-AM-300x46.png 300w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-23-at-11.32.34-AM-768x117.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 705px) 100vw, 705px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>FESTIVAL PROGRAM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sunday, June 19, 10pm<\/strong><br>TIM BERNE, KATE GENTILE, KAMIL PIOTROWICZ, TOMASZ DABROWSKI<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.barbesbrooklyn.com\/events\"><strong>Barb\u00e8s<\/strong><\/a><br>376 9th St.<br>Brooklyn NY 11215 (Corner of 6th Ave)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viewcy.com\/e\/tim_berne_kate_genti_1\"><strong>Tickets:<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;$20&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tuesday, June 21, 7:30pm &amp; 9:30pm&nbsp;<\/strong><br>JAMES BRANDON LEWIS &amp; LUTOS\u0141AWSKI QUARTET &#8211; AMERICAN PREMIERE<br>KAMIL PIOTROWICZ SEXTET<br><a href=\"https:\/\/2022.jazz.org\/jazztopad-festival\"><strong>Dizzy\u2019s Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center<\/strong><\/a><br>10 Columbus Circle, 5th Floor<br>New York, NY 10019<br><a href=\"https:\/\/2022.jazz.org\/jazztopad-festival\"><strong>Tickets<\/strong><\/a>: $35, student tickets available for $25<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wednesday, June 22, 7:30pm &amp; 9:30pm<\/strong><br>JAMES BRANDON LEWIS &amp; LUTOS\u0141AWSKI QUARTET &#8211; AMERICAN PREMIERE<br>KAMIL PIOTROWICZ SEXTET<br><a href=\"https:\/\/2022.jazz.org\/jazztopad-festival\"><strong>Dizzy\u2019s Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center<\/strong><\/a><br>10 Columbus Circle, 5th Floor<br>New York, NY 10019<br><a href=\"https:\/\/2022.jazz.org\/jazztopad-festival\"><strong>Tickets<\/strong><\/a>: $35, student tickets available for $25<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thursday, June 23 8:00pm<\/strong><br>IMPROV SESSIONS AT HOME<br>Soup &amp; Sound<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Friday, June 24, 8:00pm (7:30 doors)<br><\/strong>URI CAINE &amp; LUTOS\u0141AWSKI QUARTET<br>KAMIL PIOTROWICZ QUARTET feat.

The group's third album Weird Heaven will premiere live at Dizzy's Club during the Jazztopad Festival. Their albums Product Placement (2018) and Popular Music (2016) were nominated for a Polish Fryderyk award (comparable to the Grammy) in their respective years. The band performs Piotrowicz\u2019s own compositions, blending elements of jazz, contemporary music, Polish folklore, and minimalism. The sextet includes trumpeter Tomasz Dabrowski, alto saxophonist Kuba Wiecek, tenor saxophonist Piotr Checki, bassist Andrzej Swies, and drummer Krzysztof Szmanda. The Sextet will perform at Dizzy\u2019s Club on June 21 and 22. Piotrowicz and Dabrowski will perform with Downtown jazz legend Tim Berne and drummer Kate Gentile at Barb\u00e8s on June 19. Piotrowicz and members of the Sextet will also perform with flutist Jamie Baum on June 24 at The Owl Music Parlor.\nFounded in 2007, the Lutos\u0142awski Quartet has become one of Europe\u2019s foremost contemporary classical string quartets, specializing in the music of their namesake, Witold Lutos\u0142awski. The Quartet began a partnership with Jazztopad over a decade ago and remains an essential part of the festival\u2019s commission program. The most recent commission from Jazztopad is a piece written for saxophone and the Lutos\u0142awski Quartet by the celebrated tenor saxophonist James Brandon Lewis. The piece, the composer\u2019s first writing including strings, was premiered in Poland last year and will get its US premiere at Dizzy\u2019s Club Coca Cola on June 21 and 22. The Quartet will revisit an earlier commission with piano great Uri Caine at The Owl Music Parlor on June 24. Lastly, the Quartet will premiere arrangements of Lutoslawski made by bassist\/composer Michael Bates along with his chamber jazz group, Acrobat, at Barb\u00e8s on June 25.\nThe idea for Jazztopad New York was inspired by the Jazztopad Festival of Wroclaw, Poland. Jazz at Lincoln Center director of programming Jason Olaine attended the 2014 Festival in Poland. The Wroclaw festival impressed Olaine, and a deal was struck to bring a taste of Jazztopad to Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York. Launched at Dizzy\u2019s Club Coca Cola, Jazztopad New York continued to expand over the next five years, spreading to several illustrious venues throughout the city.\nJazztopad artistic director Piotr Turkiewicz has been steadfast in his efforts to introduce to New York Polish creative music scene. Turkiewicz has also focused on facilitating cross-cultural exchanges with musicians from other countries. An important element in this has been the commissioning of original works from visiting artists who then premiere their pieces at a Wroclaw performance. Commissions have included high-profile artists, including Charles Lloyd, Wayne Shorter, Vijay Iyer, Jason Moran, Uri Caine, and James Brandon Lewis.\nFESTIVAL PROGRAM\nSunday, June 19, 10pmTIM BERNE, KATE GENTILE, KAMIL PIOTROWICZ, TOMASZ DABROWSKIBarb\u00e8s376 9th St.Brooklyn NY 11215 (Corner of 6th Ave)Tickets: $20  \nTuesday, June 21, 7:30pm &amp; 9:30pm JAMES BRANDON LEWIS &amp; LUTOS\u0141AWSKI QUARTET - AMERICAN PREMIEREKAMIL PIOTROWICZ SEXTETDizzy\u2019s Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center10 Columbus Circle, 5th FloorNew York, NY 10019Tickets: $35, student tickets available for $25\nWednesday, June 22, 7:30pm &amp; 9:30pmJAMES BRANDON LEWIS &amp; LUTOS\u0141AWSKI QUARTET - AMERICAN PREMIEREKAMIL PIOTROWICZ SEXTETDizzy\u2019s Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center10 Columbus Circle, 5th FloorNew York, NY 10019Tickets: $35, student tickets available for $25\nThursday, June 23 8:00pmIMPROV SESSIONS AT HOMESoup &amp; Sound\nFriday, June 24, 8:00pm (7:30 doors)URI CAINE &amp; LUTOS\u0141AWSKI QUARTETKAMIL PIOTROWICZ QUARTET feat.
