I had no urge to lead a band of my own all the time I was with Krzysztof Komeda. He was such a strong force, the music was so original and he always gave me plenty of space for self-expression and interpretation. Listening closely to this recording [Litania, ECM, 1997] I realized how much I’m influenced by him. I’m happy that I had my own sound – from the beginning. But I take Komeda’s lyricism in the things that I play and that I write. He showed me how simplicity is vital, how to play the essential. He showed different approaches, using different harmonies, asymmetry, many details. […]
