With the concert “Krakow inspirations” Lora Szafran pays homage to the work of the most outstanding Cracow song composers, we will hear compositions of musical icons Piwnica pod Baranami, Zygmunt Koniecki and Andrzej Zarycki, as well as other artists. The program will include unforgettable Piwnica songs, songs known, among others, from the interpretation of Ewa Demarczyk. The original sound is given to these pieces by the author's arrangements by Miłosz Wośko and the play of excellent instrumentalists, full of artistry and jazz freedom.

However, the unique atmosphere is created primarily by the singer — Lora Szafran, recognized as one of the most outstanding Polish jazz singers. Endowed with a characteristic, deep voice, the artist brilliantly conveys the emotions contained in sounds and words.

The artist is also constantly expanding her repertoire, presenting, in addition to jazz standards, works written especially for her, as well as classics or poetic songs. At the same time, she retains her own recognizable style, appreciated by both music critics and her loyal listeners.
