Wrestling Little Sisters

- 1969 - Zbigniew Namyslowski

Jerzy Milian – one of greatest Polish vibraphonists, he graduated from Berlin Music Academy. He started to perform in early 50s, when he established his own band and was also playing in other bands on the piano. A breakthrough in his career was in ’54 when Krzysztof Komeda noticed his talent. Under his influence, Milian took up playing the vibraphone and joined his group, with which he performed on I International Jazz Festival in Sopot. Of course, due to this event Milian became really popular and after a few years he began to cooperate with Belgian radio orchestra – BRT, and finally he was lecturing at the Berlin Music Academy.
This album (Bazaar) deserves a great renown because of many different factors. Firstly, I have to mention track number one “Memory of Bach”, which inspired many modern jazzmen. What’s more, you should pay attention to the so
ng with Ewa Wanat’s (member of Novi Singers) vocal. If you are not still convinced that this album is a masterpiece remember that Jerzy Milian is the most recognizable Polish vibraphonist and it’s obligatory for each and every fan of this music to be acquainted with at least one of his albums.

In 1954 he drew attention to Miliana Krzysztof Komeda and invited him to cooperate. Under the influence of Komeda Milian abandoned the piano to be vibes in his band. On the first International Jazz Festival in Sopot, the team has achieved significant success Komeda, which led to increased interest in the person Miliana. Several years later (exactly in year 65) collaborates with the Belgian Radio Orchestra BRT. Then already gaining notoriety in the west: Working in a German radio station, and taught at the Berlin Academy of Music.

This album deserves attention for several reasons. Attention should be paid to the first track (Memory of Bach), which became one of the classics of Polish jazz - which later inspired many modernjazzowych teams. In addition, a song number 5 Ewa Wanat accompanied vocal (member of one of the most phenomenal Polish jazz groups - Novi Singers).
