The premiere concert of the project, which took place in December 2025 at the Opole Philharmonic, turned out to be an artistic success and met with enthusiastic reception from the audience. He showed that the language of jazz perfectly appeals to the contemporary audience, and Nowowiejski's music — freed from the historical patina — still impresses with beauty, freshness and power of expression.This is an unusual meeting of classics with jazz and an opportunity to discover the work of Felix Nowowiejski in a completely new version.
