Michal Urbaniak: Urbaniak (1977)


Michal Urbaniak (born June 22, 1943) is a Polish jazz musician and composer born in Warsaw, playing mainly the violin, lyricon (one of the first electronic wind instruments constructed) and saxophone during concerts and recordings. He played a central role in the development of jazz fusion in the 1970s and 1980s by introducing elements of folk, R&B, hip hop, and symphonic music to jazz. Enjoy this rare Inner City re-release, featuring seven originals by Urbaniak and sideman Zbigniew Namyslowski.
