Mateusz Smoczynski is an internationally acclaimed Polish jazz violinist known for his virtuosity and innovative approach to music.

Talking about his album "Adam's Apple", which will be released in 2024, he said: "This album is a tribute to two important personalities: Zbigniew Seifert and John Adams. While Seifert's playing has inspired me since the beginning of my career, I only encountered the music of John Adams in 2016. Despite this short period of time, Adams' work completely changed my approach to music. Through his compositions, I discovered a new beauty in symphonic music - an idea of jazz that combined elements of swing and groove - and realized that seemingly contradictory elements can be woven into a common form: Beauty with ugliness, gentleness with brutality, tonality with atonality, monumentality with minimalism and expressionism with impressionism.
