POLISH BELOW

The Roshko Brothers, deeply rooted in classical music, blend tradition with modernity. Raised in Suwałki's wild nature and Slavic melancholy, their violin and cello resonate with history and emotion. Yet, they also embrace electronic elements, fusing the old-world charm with a contemporary twist, creating a unique sonic experience that bridges eras. Brothers performed at EFG London J

azz Festival, Delemont Jazz Days (Switzerland), 26th Vilnius Jazz Festival, Handelsbeurs Ghent Concert Hall, Leeds Film Festival, and Christopher Summer Festival. In 2017 they recorded a CD for the NAXOS record label – two trios of Karol Lipiński with Voytek Proniewicz. The record was nominated to International Classical Music Awards
(ICMA 2019). Adam and Jan run ART - SOS Foundation in Poland, where they contribute to the cultural life of the Suwalki region. They realized four editions of the Wigrosfera Festival at the Wigry National Park. www.wigrosfera.com

Roshko Brothers to muzyczne braterskie duo z głębokimi korzeniami w klasyce. Ich muzyka łączy tradycję z nowoczesnością, tworząc unikalne doświadczenie dźwiękowe. Wzrastając na Suwalszczyźnie, otoczeni dziką naturą i tajemniczą słowiańską melancholią, Roshko Brothers, czyli Jan i Adam Roszkowscy, przenoszą te inspiracje do swojej muzyki. Ich skrzypce i wiolonczela brzmią jak głosy przyszłości opowiadając historie i wywołując emocje. Bracia sięgają po nowe brzmienia, eksplorując elektronikę przestrzenną. Dodają do swoich kompozycji i występów elementy elektroniczne, tworząc dynamiczne połączenie tradycji z nowoczesnością. Duet pokazuje, że muzyka klasyczna nie musi być nudna dla słuchacza, wręcz przeciwnie - dzięki swoim interpretacjom i poszukiwaniom bracia Roszkowscy opowiadają historie, nawiązują do wybitnych kompozytorów, ale przede wszystkim pozwalają zatracić się w muzycznych pejzażach. Dzięki solidnemu wykształceniu - Jan studiował wiolonczelę na nowojorskim Manhattanie, Adam w Królewskim Konserwatorium w Brukseli - w swoich kompozycjach dbają o każdy szczegół, ale pozwalają sobie też na szaleństwa.

“Wcześniej kierowaliśmy się silnym pragnieniem karier solistycznych. Przeszliśmy całą tę drogę doskonalenia intonacji i techniki gry na skrzypcach i wiolonczeli, gamy, pasaże, Bach, Mozart, Wieniawski, Schumann, Szostakowicz. Wielokrotnie występowaliśmy jako soliści grając ten repertuar z polskimi orkiestrami. Dopiero po latach nauki w renomowanych szkołach zdecydowaliśmy, że ważniejsza jest dla nas ścieżka kompozycji, autorskiej muzyki, wolność w improwizacji, świat eksperymentu i namnażanie warstw muzycznych…” - mówi Adam Roszkowski. Utwory Roshko Brothers to formy komponowane, w których bracia poszukują swobodnej wypowiedzi na skrzypcach i wiolonczeli. Słychać w nich subtelny dialog pomiędzy elektroniką a czarem wiolonczeli. Eksperyment jest tutaj częścią języka muzycznego, który tworzą. Symfoniczne brzmienia budują bardziej filmową przestrzeń, czasem można w nich wysłyszeć klimat polodowcowych krajobrazów suwalszczyzny. Te filmowe miraże nie są obce zwłaszcza Janowi, który skomponował muzykę do filmu fabularnego “Defekt Serca” w reżyserii Bogdana Kozuli. He is a laureate of the 27th National Chamber Music Competition in Wroclaw (3rd prize), Warsaw Chamber Competition for Young Musician (1st prize) and the National Cello Competition in Elblag (laureate). Thanks to the Fulbright Scholarship, Jan has completed a Master's Degree in Music Performance at Manhattan School of Music in New York, where he also studied Jazz Piano and Composition. He has presented solo and chamber performances at the Steinway Hall (New York), Jay Heritage Center (USA), Kosciuszko Foundation (New York) East Poland House (Brussels), Hotel des Invalides (Paris) and on the festivals including : International Mozartiana (Gdansk, Poland), XIV International Chopin & Friends Festival (New York),Swietojanskie Swietowanie (Gdansk, Poland), EFG London Jazz Festival, Vilnius Jazz Festival and many others. Jan collaborates with such artists as Janusz Olejniczak, Tomasz Strahl, Voytek Proniewicz, Zbigniew Namyslowski, Steven Lutvak and Iwona Sobotka. In 2009, Jan Roszkowski appeared as soloist with the Camerata Dell' Arte Orchestra playing Haydn C- Major Concerto in his hometown, Suwalki, and in 2008 was toured in China as a member of Chopin Academia Orchestra. Together with his brother, violinist Adam Roszkowski, Jan co-founded a professional Violin-Cello Duo. In the 2017 season the brothers will give a premiere of the Sonata written for them by american composer David Noon. Jan has recorded many music programs and CD's released for Polish Radio, Polish TV, Radio BIS, DUX and Kayax. Adam Roszkowski made his debut on stage at the age of 6. In 2005 and 2006 he received a double scholarship from the Belgian government. In recent years he was a I soloist in Gorzów Philharmonic Orchestra. During this time he performed as a soloist with Gorzów Philharmonic Orchestra, Białystok Philharmonic Orchestra, Camerata dell'arte Chamber Orchestra, Carloforte Festival Orchestra and played Wieniawski, Mozart, Saint-Saens violin concertos and great pieces of Ravel, Chausson, Williams and Halvorsen. He was invited to play a common recitals with the famous polish pianist, Janusz Olejniczak and ukrainian violinist Vadim Brodsky. In 2008 together with his brother, cellist Jan Roszkowski, Adam co-founded a professional Violin-Cello Duo. In June of 2011, the brothers launched 7-concert tour around Poland, including a performance at the 13th and 14th Festival of Baroque Music in Pasym and in May 2012, they appeared with a recital at the Polish Slavic Center (NYC).

Back after the holiday break in true winter magic ❄️
With frost, snow, and blue skies outside – perfect time to take you back to our Wintertale world.

This track tells the story of a Suwałki day when Poland’s „coldest pole” truly shines: crunchy snow underfoot, frosted trees, sunlight dancing on icy crystals. Let Wintertale be your musical walk through winter’s enchantment.

Physical release 🌊💿
After months of work and a journey that took several years, “River of Time” is now available as a physical CD edition. The album reflects on time — as a creative process, a personal path, and a continuous flow. A cinematic musical journey where classical string instruments meet electronics, inspired by nature and the quiet landscapes of northeastern Poland.
The CD comes in a tactile, rough-textured cardboard sleeve, printed on the reverse side for a subtle retro finish. A warm, carefully crafted physical edition — made to be listened to and held.
💿 CD available now on Bandcamp. The physical release includes unlimited streaming and high-quality digital downloads (MP3, FLAC and more).

Fizyczna premiera 🌊💿
Po miesiącach pracy i drogi, która trwała kilka lat, „River of Time” ukazuje się teraz również jako fizyczny nośnik CD. To album o czasie — rozumianym jako proces twórczy, osobista droga i nieustanny przepływ. Muzyczna opowieść, w której klasyczne instrumenty smyczkowe spotykają się z elektroniką, a dźwięk prowadzi przez krajobrazy i ciszę Suwalszczyzny.
Płyta została wydana w chropowatej, miłej w dotyku kartonowej oprawie, zadrukowanej na rewersie, aby uzyskać subtelny, retro charakter. To ciepły, starannie wykonany obiekt — do słuchania, ale też do trzymania w rękach.
💿 CD jest dostępne na Bandcamp. Zakup fizycznego wydania zawiera również nielimitowany streaming oraz pliki cyfrowe (MP3, FLAC i inne).
