For almost two decades Polish improviser MARCIN BOŻEK has been working intensively individually and collectively in duets, trios and leading orchestras to explore the musical spaces between rhythm and harmony. He sets the air in motion by vibrating it using an instrument. He uses sounds that are not commonly called music. Music is an art.
