about

Alchemy of Sound: prepare to embark on a transformative journey as the sounds of saxophonist José Lencastre, double bass virtuoso Zbigniew Kozera, and percussion maestro Vasco Trilla converge in their debut album.

Recorded in the vibrant atmosphere of Jazz Krakow Autumn, "Chymeia" preserves the energy and spontaneity of the band´s live performance.

The album takes its name from ancient alchemy, embodying the transformative nature of the trio's pursuit of turning the raw materials of sound into something greater than the sum of its parts.

"Chymeia" is a sonic exploration where the trio navigates the uncharted waters of spontaneous creation, an invitation to witness the magic that happens when three musicians come together with nothing but their instruments and a shared passion for exploration, giving rise to a new and alchemically charged sonic landscape.
