Kwadrofonik

Kwadrofonik is a vibrant Polish ensemble that’s all about reimagining classical and contemporary music with a playful, multidisciplinary twist. Founded in 2005 by pianists Emilia Sitarz and Bartłomiej Wąsik, along with percussionists Magdalena Kordylasińska and Miłosz Pękala, the group blends instruments like piano, vibraphone, and drums with spoken word, theater, and electronics. They’ve gained acclaim for breathing new life into works by Polish composers like Witold Lutosławski, including their quirky takes on his children’s songs (*Lutosławski Tuwim. Piosenki nie tylko dla dzieci*) and experimental projects like *Astronomia poety. Baczyński*, which fuses poetry by World War II-era poet Krzysztof Kamil Baczyński with cosmic soundscapes. Kwadrofonik’s performances often feel like immersive art experiences, balancing precision with spontaneity. Based in Warsaw, they’ve become a go-to for audiences craving fresh, genre-blurring music that bridges past and present.
