This box set is a treasure-trove of rare and previously unissued classic jazz film soundtracks written by a pair of legendary Polish composers and pianists - Krzysztof Komeda and Andrzej Trzaskowski.\r
\r

Among the first time ever releases on 'Jazz in Polish Cinema - Out of the Underground 1958-1967' is the soundtrack to the celebrated 'Night Train' ('Pociag') with a score by Trzaskowski (it is based on the swing band leader Artie Shaw's 'Moonray' theme with a vocal by acclaimed Polish jazz vocalist Wanda Warska). As well released for the first time in its entirety is Andrzej Wajda's 'Innocent Sorcerers', containing a classic jazz score by Komeda and previously unissued tracks in any format featuring the great Polish trumpeter Tomasz Stanko.

'Jazz in Polish Cinema' also contains both previously unheard and rare releases featuring the likes of Don Cherry, Gato Barbieri, Zbigniew Namyslowski and Michal Urbaniak. The CDs are high quality remasters, the large majority of which have been transferred direct from the original master tapes with additional rare 'alternative' versions of tracks from the film scores also included.

The box set also contains a deluxe illustrated 80-page bound booklet that examines in depth a fascinating and highly significant period in Polish cultural history. The booklet is annotated by the UK's leading jazz magazine Jazzwise journalist Selwyn Harris (the producer and curator of the set) with an introduction to Polish jazz during the post-war period by the respected Polish jazz author-composer Adam Slawinski, writer of the original liner notes for Komeda's pioneering studio album Astigmatic.
