“Broken Conversations” is a unique event resulting from the cooperation of poet Agnieszka Wolny-Hamkało and composer and jazz trumpeter Piotr Damasiewicz.

This project was born out of an unusual interpretation of Hamkało’s poems from “Zerwane rozmowy”, which took place in September 2022 in The Ślęza River. The original interpretation of the text performed by Agnieszka Popławska contributed to further development of the idea, which started to materialize in 2024, becoming much more than just a publication -synthesis of poetry, music and art, creating an exceptional artistic experience.

Performing:

Piotr Damasiewicz  - a composer, trumpeter, multi-instrumentalist, educator, traveller and a curator of international music platforms. In his artistic work, he bases on the language of jazz, 20th-century classical music, ethnic and modern music, including European improvised and experimental music.
