Slow Art Day. Concert. Rybicki/Kozera
Concert
(Saturday), 6–7 PM, Beautiful Tube, 1st floor
Slow Art Day is not only about deep reflection on selected works (>>>). As part of this year’s edition of the action, we would like to invite you to listen deeply to the sounds of the clarinet and double bass, which will resonate inside the shelter thanks to Mateusz Rybicki and Zbigniew Kozera.
The musicians have been closely cooperating for a number of years, in partnership with different artists. Their debut record XU is a testimony to partnership in music and a demonstration of how Music with a capital “M” emerges through craftsmanship, attention to not only smooth narrative, but also details and consistency in sound. Their music is devoid of the often tiring competition for the primacy of individual instruments. Instead, it stems from a sense of shared experience, which does not mean that it cannot be vivid and beautiful, wild and sharp. Both musicians play with simple sounds verging on the ascetic. Perhaps this is the reason why the climaxes resonate with unusual expressiveness.
