Mazur & Neuringer Duo - Improwizje

"Keir Neuringer on alto saxophone and Rafal Mazur on acoustic bass guitar serve you an eighteen-minute delight of horrific music, with two instruments building a wall of sound that is hard to believe, screeching, wailing, howling: terryfying, pleading, hair-raising, hypnotic, numbing, mad, desperate ... but it is also light, sensitive, full of sonic subtlety and nuance. "

Ensemble 56 - Towards Sky Flight of Dragon
"...Spontaneous, improvised music is an art in its own. Dora, Gorka and Mazur have transcended the ordinary to find an intuitive weave and give their music a presence of depth and dimension. The path is not always distinct, it becomes clear as they let their imaginations co-exist and divine the journey..."

"The music is fiercely beautiful. I am completely energized by it! The events on Untitled 1 take you into a realm of huge spacial clarity, with the vibratory energies releasing, & entraining symbiotic energies in your spatio-physical-auditory awareness..."

PROCESS - Live in Krakow
APEIRON - Night in Krakow
"Piano and contrabass collaborate in a fantastic music here, during one take of half an hour. There are flowing patterns, little cascades of sounds delivered with a wonderful, minute sense for the details. The secret of keeping this process so alive might lie in the pauses which are employed in what might be called a breath-like rhythm, but organically irregular. In a late stage the music gets slower and more exquisitely sparse - before finally there seems to be a deliberate turn to a pulsating, freejazzy texture, like a closing fanfare - still with sensitivity intact. Sensuous and fresh music."
