about

Recorded live on March 6th 2015 at The Grand Social, Dublin. The concert was part of the Five Lamps Arts Festival.

The Supertonic Orchestra was founded in 2010 by Przemyslaw Lozowski, a multi-instrumentalist from Lublin, Poland and based in Dublin. Lozowski has gathered a group of musicians from different musical backgrounds, sharing the same vision to bring Polish traditional songs to the Irish audience.
Lozowski and The Supertonic Orchestra find inspiration in the melodies, poems and dances created by the communities who were living in Poland between XVI and XVIII century. At a time when Europe was tormented by religious persecutions, Poland has offered refuge to many ethnic and religious groups. Hasidic and Ashkenazi Jews, Germans, Ukrainians, Gypsies and others could there thrive, preserve their culture and ultimately cross-pollinate with the native peoples, particularly the minorities on the Carpathian region: Lemkos, Bojkos, Hutsuls, etc.
Traditional instruments like the hurdy gurdy and the fiddle are combined with modern acoustic ones like double bass and trombone and even electric guitars.
The ensemble has developed a modern sound while retaining sensitivity to the original music. Influences from apparently distant music genres like Reggae, Jazz and Rock are an important part of the Supertonic sound and philosophy.
The Supertonic Orchestra has established itself as the most prominent Roots Folk and Klezmer ensemble in Ireland. The Orchestra has performed in many venues, festivals and cultural events across the country, never failing to attract crowds of Polish Folk connoisseurs and to surprise and captivate the uninitiated listeners. Its shows have been described as powerful, soulful, engaging and moving.
