For several years now, we have been living in the 21st century, an era in which almost everything has been discovered and not everything arouses excitement and a desire to explore. Just as reading books transports us to a world of fantasy, so does music, when listened to carefully, take us on a journey to another, imagined world. Since the beginning of humanity, the cosmos and the universe have been a great mystery and inspiration for many artists. Musicians are no exception. The new album that combines such a musical journey into unknown spaces is called Space in Between by the well-known Polish and international pianist Katarzyna Borek, winner of many music competitions in and outside the country. This time, she presents an album released by the BITTT Records label run by Leszek Możdżer in a limited edition of 450 copies. Space in Between differs in its energy from previous recordings such as the debut album Tempus Fantasy. The music is more calm, light, experimental, yet as precise as in previous albums. Another advantage of the album is the inspiration and minimization of works by world-famous composers who inspire Katarzyna Borek, so we can listen to tracks like Uranus For Craig Armstrong, Earth For Manuel De Falla, Rings Of Uranus For Ludovico Einaudi, and others. Our emotions are deepened even more by the recording from space, which is placed between the tracks. These are sounds of planets and stars that calm our thoughts. Something wonderful that creates a very intimate connection between each touch of the piano or rhodes and the listener. It can be said that there have been many musicians who have combined their playing with recordings from space (in various musical genres), but this album is very individual and intimate. The virtuosic sounds will delight the hearts of many post-classical music lovers, who will surely appreciate the original interpretations of well-known works, the discovery of which is not easy. The combination of neoclassical sounds, sounds from space recorded by NASA, and electronic effects forces us to do only one thing. With closed eyes, listen tenderly and ... fly.
