Krzysia Górniak

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. When I was 6 I started playing the piano and the first important composer whose pieces I played was Fryderyk Chopin, it was lyrical, emotional and nostalgic music that I liked very much. I liked to play Chopin's pieces and then improvise around it. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Pat Metheny Group, Letter from Home Pat Metheny was my guitar guru, inspiration and musician I grew up with. I know every one of his albums from the 80s by heart. Great music, illustrative, multi-dimensional compositions, beautifully arranged and masterfully played. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Strawberry Kisses” I composed Strawberry Kisses in June, it was strawberry time and it reminds me of the sweet beginning of summer, hence the reference to kisses. It is something pleasant, warm, something that we like to recall in our dreams on long winter evenings. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Long-term cooperation with the producer Winicjusz Chróst at Studio Chrost, with whom I recorded and produced the albums: Ultra, Garden Of Love, Emotions, Feelings, Tribute to Nat King Cole, Moments, Memories. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I would like to develop my projects, play concerts around the world. I plan to record Krzysia Górniak String Orchestra, where I will present my best compositions in new arrangements for a jazz trio accompanied by a string orchestra.
