Polish Jazz TOP TEN 2014 by Tomek Łuczak

As usual at the end of the year we publish our lists of best recordings released in the given calendar year in which Polish musicians have participated. This list is the effect of combining four separate lists arranged by Maciej Nowotny, Mateusz Magierowski, Tomek Łuczak and Adam Baruch, who all constitute our editorial office. On four consecutive days we we will publish our separate individual lists. We hope that this will be a lot of fun for our readers and eventually it will also help you to get a grip of what was the most interesting in Polish Jazz in year 2014.
