Program note: Klatka Still’s title refers to two of the composition’s influences, the jazz trumpeter and composer/arranger Tony Klatka, and shot of a particular cross-section of Polish fans televised during the 2006 World Cup in Dortmund. The other primary inspiration was a memorably atmospheric outdoor concert in Rome by the jazz trumpeter Tomasz Stanko in 2002. Along with flutist Marya Martin, and Ed Harsh of Meet the Composer, the composer is most grateful to musicologist Piotr Wilk with whom he attended the Stanko performance.
