PRESS ABOUT DELIGTHED

"The new album (...) in a way encapsulates Duda’s musical experiences – apparently including her work in theatre and film – handling mood and pace in a truly remarkable way."

- Bartek Chaciński

"The balance between energy and contemplation, between construction and freedom, is achieved by the band with impressive ease. (...) A magnificent album that expands the boundaries of jazz with natural ease."

- Jazz-fun.De

"Delighted (...) announces, in big bold Fractur capitals, the Trio’s intention to confect fun. It delivers. Its songs are decisive, coordinated, high - energy, and complicated, often to the point of showiness."

- Michael Mikesell/We Jazz

“Effortlessly interchanging some mind boggling time signatures, I love their precision.”

by Soweto Kinch, BBC Radio 3

"Six years since the avant-leaning experimentalism of debut Keen, this mysteriously inventive Polish musician reinvents the piano trio alongside bassist Maksymilian Mucha and drummer Michał Bryndal. From We’re New To This Planet’s wildly distorted vamping to When The Truffles Get Dry’s arch stop-start schemata, intensity is their identity. Duda’s unconventional songs unfailingly connect – even a spry turn from rapper Jakub Jan Bryndal fits like a glove." /4 stars

"It might seem that with such a vast spread of inspirations, reconciling fire and water would be an impossible task. Yet it is precisely Joanna Duda’s imagination, virtuosity and compositional intuition - supported by the reliable and creative craftsmanship of her bandmates — that make this goal achievable with astonishing lightness and natural ease."
