"anima mundi"
World music suite composed by Władysław Sendecki
NDR Bigband · Jörg Achim Keller (conductor)
Władysław
Sendecki is in the best meaning of this expression a world musician.
In late 70 ties he combine Jazz rock of Keith Jarrett and Chick Corea
with expressive face of Polish jazz scene. Since 80 ties as popular
accompanying musician played with Jaco Pastorius, Klausi Doldinger,
Michael & Randy Brecker, Joe Henderson, Michał Urbaniak and many
others, he became known on jazz scene in Europe and USA In smaller
extent as a pianist of NDR Bigband, Sendecki traveled around world and
experienced sounds and mentalities of all continents. In music he
found "spirit of world" universal platform of understanding,
regardless of respective styles and sound systems "when you don't
speak Chinese, it doesn't mean one can't communicate with Chinese. We
all have universal human virtues, and music is a language- when one
has something to say".
As a composer Władysław
Sendecki translated this experience to concrete sounds. He wrote for
NDR Bigband a suite "Anima Mundi", "stories with
pictures", as he called it himself. Through 15 years of traveling
he collected recordings of various music cultures. In Africa, a
humankind cradle, starts a vibrating collection of pictures, which
Sendecki presents to our ears. Horizons reaches through Asia with its
ritual gongs and flutes to turbulent Slavic folklore. He contacts by
his colleagues from NDR Bigband directly with world music soul,
enabling them a dialogue with African singers and Hindi sitars, he
introduces them to Java rituals, finally inviting them to frolic jigs
& reels in an Irish pub. Samples and Loops of his original
recordings introduce here a local color, but also impress to height
the roles of musicians around world accompanying international NDR
Bigband set up. This way Władysław Sendecki establishes in minimal
music space an exchange covering all globe.: "We artists are real
pioneers of globalization, since we live on cultural exchange, In
composing and arranging I was for idea of tolerance. Everyone have to
undertake a dialogue without loosing particular identities."
