A great range of work here from the famous Sopot Jazz Festival in Poland -- 3CDs worth of music from that key year of 1957, when the Polish scene was really taking off! As with the 1956 set, the styles run from trad to modern -- the later of which are really of strongest interest to us here, given the huge changes going on in jazz at the time -- changes which the Polish players not only took note of, but often bettered with their own music! © 1996-2008, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
