Michał Urbaniak is a Polish jazz violinist and saxophone player. Throughout the years of his artistic calling, all elements of his ingenious personality were always there: straight-ahead expression paired with Slavic ingenuousness, musical eclectics, contemporary articulation and the influence of Polish folk music, all flawlessly incorporated into the vocabulary of Black American Jazz.
In his compositions, Urbaniak has always attempted to integrate the latest trends of world Jazz with elements of his personal style. He brings together the original, easily recognizable sound of his instrument with current musical conventions.
Despite different music genres he has explored, Urbaniak has always found inspiration in his own folk tradition, and at the same time, in creating homogeneous forms of musical expression in a truly unique jazz art form.
