this might be a nice companion piece for this 1967 krzysztof komeda show with a much younger tomasz stanko.  nice to see things going around like that.  not anything that i’ve seen before since i don’t watch polanskiy’s films.  nice line up, too!  looking for this on the web, i did run across a jazz(ish) blog i’ve not seen before, musica degradata, who shared the show back in 2013 (dead link now).

krzysztof komeda quartet with tomasz stanko – 1967, polish television “jazz w filharmonii”

this was seeded recently enough on dime by ‘davidraphael’, in video format, which i’ve demuxed. the sound quality is very good. it was seeded as “requiem for john coltrane” (a.k.a. “nighttime daytime requiem”) but on www.komeda.art.pl it’s just “nighttime daytime requiem”.  either way, allaboutjazz.com says that it “was written as a response to the news of the death of saxophonist john coltrane”.  it’s a great tribute to coltrane, and i would be interested to know what was said about him in the short interview in the middle of the performance.

we don’t know the characteristics of the original audio, but the video had a pcm audio track.
quality is excellent, considering the age and method of this recording.
