Janusz Prusinowski Trio and Kwadrophonik Stop In Madison

Head on down to Mills Music Hall this Thursday to catch a couple Polish bands pay tribute to the roots, inspiration, and music of Chopin.

The Janusz Prusinowski Trio plays traditional Polish village music while Kwadrophonik will mix folk with jazz and classical by using two pianos and an arsenal of percussion.

It will appeal to fans of world folk, experimental music, and Chopin.

Many thanks to Szymon Wozniczka, who also helps organize the Polish Film Festival here in Madison, for organizing this show. This Madison appearance is a real coup as the bands were only going to do two dates here in the States with stops in Chicago and then New York. But Szymon talked them into stopping here in Madison rather than having them wait around for nearly a week between dates. He inveigled them at first to reduce their fees and then finally to accept door receipts.
