The album features premiere recordings of works by the versatile composer and cellist Tomasz Skweres, standing out due to his boldness in reaching for extensive ensembles and unusual instrumental combinations. The artists who faced this extremely demanding matter are well-known and outstanding contemporary music performers, soloists and ensembles from Poland and Austria. They present here an excellent interpretation of works that are difficult to stop listening to, in spite of their complicated, multidimensional form.
