about
The Resonance Ensemble, an international jazz group, began as a co-presentation by Ken Vandermark and Marek Winiarski. Vandermark had performed in Poland over the course of several years, with a large number of groups (the Vandermark 5, duo with Paal Nilssen-Love, Sonore, Free Fall, Powerhouse Sound, the Frame Quartet and many more), and decided that is was time to organize a band that included musicians from that part of the world. After consulting with Winiarski (who runs Not Two records and is an organizer of Jazz concerts in Krakow), the two combined their resources and knowledge to organize a large unit of improvisers from the contemporary scene. In addition to Vandermark (reeds), the project included Magnus Broo (trumpet) and Per-Ake Holmlander (tuba) from Stockholm; Tim Daisy (drums), Dave Rempis (saxophones), and Michael Zerang (percussion) from Chicago; Steve Swell (trombone) from New York; Mark Tokar (bass) and Yuri Yarumchuk (reeds) from Lviv; and Mikolaj Trzaska (reeds) from Gdansk.
