\u201cI first heard a Rhodes piano in the song Riders on\r
the Storm by The Doors,\u201d Aleksander Nowak recalls. The characteristic keyboard part was performed in that piece by Ray Manzarek. \r
\r
\u201cDirectly before composing my work, I listened to The Bill Evans Album and to Ray Charles,\u201d Nowak adds. \r
\r
Marcin Stanczyk says: 'Its sound [Fender Rhodes piano]\r
has fascinated me!\u201d he admits. \u201cI\u2019d only previously\r
known the Rhodes from recordings by jazz (Hancock,\r
Peterson, Brecker), rock (Led Zeppelin), and even pop\r
(Jackson) musicians.\u201d \r
\r
The pianist who brought these composers together,\r
Piotr Orzechowski, \u2018came across\u2019 the Rhodes when\r
listening to Miles Davis.\r
\r
'It sounded like an alternative for the rather hermetic world of the piano.\u201d\r
\r
Orzechowski invited the composers over to his home\r
city of Cracow, where they had a chance to get acquainted with the instrument (a late 1970s model).\r
\r
The Fender Rhodes piano has a wooden keyboard\r
similar to that of a grand piano, and a hammer action system. This electro-acoustic instrument is not equipped with electronic sound generators, and its sound colour is monolithic making this a unique recording.
