Tymański Yass Ensemble

TYMANSKI YASS Ensemble was established in November 2003 when the Tymon Tymanski Band and charismatic trumpeter Antoni ZIUT Gralak joined the group. Antoni is also the leader of TIE BREAK GRAAL czy YESHE. This group continues the Tricity’s yass scene tradition from the 90s. Its repertoire is a natural mix of jazz, alternative rock, and ethnic music. YASS ENSEMBLE is Tymanski’s collaboration with the legendary MILOSC, as well as the contributions of his band mates (some of whom are leaders of their own bands and creators of original music ideas). In spring 2004, the Gdansk Biodro Studios recorded their first album, “Jitte”, which was derived from shotokan karate forms that mean “ten hands” in Japanese. In November 2004, Tone Industria, a Warsaw-based record label, issued it. YASS ENSEMBLE is currently working on “Immathematics”, their second album. It will be produced by Piotr Pawlak, KURY and LOSKOT. He is an exceptional Polish guitarist and sound experimentator. THE LINE UP: Antoni Ziut Gralak – trumpet, tuba; Marcin Slusarczyk – alto and baritone saxophones; Tymon Tymanski – guitar; Wojtek Mazolewski – bass guitar; Kuba Staruszkiewicz – drums. from http://www.tymanski.com
