Zbigniew Chojnacki

"While accordion has a lengthy history in jazz, it’s far from a common instrument. Indeed, it probably has far more detractors than supporters, which is unfortunate because the accordion is an incredibly versatile axe. The most visible contemporary practitioners fall squarely in the avant garde realm, building on expanded palettes and a clear understanding of the instrument’s rich preexisting vocabulary. On the young Polish accordionist Zbigniew Chojnacki’s unaccompanied debut Elektrotropizm, he supplants a grimy Hammond B3-like insistence with an array of pedals and a laptop (as well as occasional wordless vocals). The music ranges from bright, folksy melodies, like the closing “Tuwim”, to the fantasia of measured blurts and sine-abetted darts that begins the four-part “Suite” central to the disc. By its third section, Chojnacki’s deft keyboard work and supple bellows are in full view, creating intricate chordal patterns advancing and receding in relation to dramatic melody fragments, halting in curtailed blows as he builds an emphatic slink into the lengthy fourth part’s honking minimalism. Elektrotropizm is a flawless, vast exploration arrived at through singular means" New York City Jazz Record
