Pat Metheny & Anna Maria Jopek
2008 Nonesuch (international edition)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why me? Everything I’ve experienced so far proved to be insufficient. The knowledge the work, the talent I possibly have – they are all of such a small size compared to Pat’s genius. This album is the bravest of my dreams coming true. Sung in Polish. The message, I believe, reaches beyond the language boundaries.

I hope that our passion, determination and love can still be sensed, or felt. Let me pray it can be a message of peace in this turbulent world. It is agreat place to live, though. Otherwise Pat would have chosen some other world, some other time, to bless it with the gift of his music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna Maria Jopek<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Poland is a special place, a place filled with some of the soulful and unique people and musicians anywhere. The relationship that I have enjoyed with the audiences and players there over the years has been a wonderful and unique enrichment to my live, musically and personally.\u00a0

While performing at a jazz Festival in Europe in the summer of 2001 I was approached by an exceptional young Polish musician, singer Anna Maria Jopek. Her dream was to collaborate on a project together, blending out sounds with all-star cast of the best Polish players playing some of my tunes, some Polish folk melodies and some of her own compositions. Her dedication and sincerity were compelling and as I became familiar with her music over the next few months, I was impressed with everything\u00a0 about her music and her singing.

It was a real pleasure to collaborate with Anna, Marcin and all the fantastic musicians represented here. Their vision of how to interpret my tunes often inspired me to look at them in a totally different way myself. The recording sessions were stimulating and focused as\u00a0 Anna and I and the other musicians discovered the many different ways that we could play together. This was music making at its most fun and collaborative. We hope you will enjoy this music as much as we enjoyed making it together\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
