SUMMARY:04.10| The POSK Festival of Jazz Voice. Day Two!
DESCRIPTION:The POSK Festival of Jazz Voice returns on the first weekend of October 2025 to celebrate the excellence\, beauty\, and innovation that the great singers of jazz embody!\nDuring the 2nd edition this still new festival\, you will be able to hear some of those outstanding voices in their element.\nLet’s celebrate again the broad and abundant vocal excellence in London\, together at Jazz Café POSK during the weekend of 3rd and 4th of October 2025!\nMore at Jazz Café POSK website: www.jazzcafeposk.org\n\nSaturday 4 October 2025:\nSet 1: AGATA KUBIAK\nSet 2: FREDDIE BENEDICT\nSet 3: VIMALA ROWE\nSet 4: ALICE ZAWADZKI\n\nSET 1 (8 pm): AGATA KUBIAK Trio\nOriginally from Poland\, Agata Kubiak is a London based jazz singer and violinist. Her recent album\, “The Other” was released in June this year. She was a finalist of an international jazz competition Riga Jazz Stage and was also listed in the top 20 female jazz singers by the European Jazz Magazine ‘Jazz Forum’. Agata will present a special set of beloved English and Polish jazz standards in new\, personal arrangements featuring a world premiere of a version of one of her favourite jazz compositions “Kind Folk” with her original lyrics.\n“Agata Kubiak is talent personified. Her voice is beautifully sweet\, but with a slight sardonic edge (…)” – This Year in Music\n“Surprisingly\, when listening to “Polarity” one gets a feeling that she sings only for you\, almost in your ear (…)” – VK DA Vision\nLine up: Agata Kubiak – voice and violin; Rob Brockway – piano; Charlie Pyne – double bass\nVideo 1 (“Jej portret” – live @ Riga): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrbdADK6C40\n\nSET 2 (8:40 pm): FREDDIE BENEDIT Quartet\nHailing from a theatrical family\, Freddie Benedict’s extraordinary voice soared from a young age. A choral scholar and classical soloist when young\, it is as a jazz interpreter that his mature\, warm baritone has really found its calling. With a voice that bridges the timeless charm of jazz with a modern edge\, Freddie offers a whistlestop tour through his musical world – blending technical brilliance with soulful storytelling. As the lead male singer with National Youth Jazz Orchestra for 10 years\, he has performed all over the UK\, including Ronnie Scott’s. Freddie has recorded some original music which he is planning to release in the not-so-distant future!\n“It doesn’t get much better than this…a dazzling vocalist” – Steven Berkoff\n“Freddie is an incredible young\, up-and-coming jazz vocalist” – on Smith\, The Swingles\nLine up: Freddie Benedict – vocals and trumpet; Chris Bland – piano; Luke Fowler – double bass; Tom Potter – drums\nVideo 1 (“Puttin’ on the Ritz” – live): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADuquucqR0g\n\nSET 3 (9:30 pm): VIMALA ROWE Quartet\nFrom her training in Hindustani classical music in India\, to world music\, soul and effortlessly swinging jazz\, award winning singer Vimala Rowe has rapidly become recognised as a major talent on the British jazz scene. Sell out performances at Ronnie Scott’s\, Pizza Express Jazz Club-Soho\, 606 Club\, London Jazz Festival and countrywide\, she delights and enchants her audiences with her naturally passionate and emotive range of expression. The World Jazz vocalist debuts her new show – she tells the story of her direct experience of having multiple ‘mothers’ before being adopted by white academic parents. Music\, artists and poetry from Billie Holiday to William Blake always helped her navigate through these sometimes challenging and joyful experiences. They are the cornerstones to the show.\n“Artistry of the highest order” – Simon Callow\n“A singer of quite astonishing versatility and adaptability” – London Jazz News\nLine up: Vimala Rowe – vocals; Charlie Flint – piano; Mikele Montolli – bass; Darren Becket – drums\nVideo 1 (Live @ Green Note): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GA8ihZnuHzQ\n\nSET 4 (10:20 pm): ALICE ZAWADZKI Trio\nClash Magazine described Alice Zawadzki as “loosely connected to the jazz world\, but realistically inhabiting her own realm”. Indeed\, she is widely known for her striking compositions\, unexpected collaborations and sense of artistic adventure\, as well as her recent release on ECM Records ‘Za Górami’\, with The Guardian proclaiming her as “a genuine original”. At the root of this rich journey\, is her first love: jazz. With two of her dearest friends and close collaborators\, pianist Pete Lee and bassist Misha Mullov-Abbado\, Alice Zawadzki returns home to Duke Ellington\, Charlie Mingus\, Billy Strayhorn and more!..\n“Her lustrous vocal range is the real live deal… a commanding\, intense performer” – Jazzwise Magazine\n“Zawadzki’s talent is bursting at the seams.

In turn\, Łukasz Pawlik (winner of the Berlin Jazz & Blues Award)\, makes himself known as a cellist\, and therefore one of the few artists to use this instrument in jazz.\nThe duo’s music defies clear-cut classification. Apart from jazz\, it contains elements of world music and highland folklore. Although both musicians are classically trained instrumentalists\, their element is improvisation and what is created here and now.\nSet 1: Włodek Pawlik plays his original compositions and jazz standards! \nSet 2: Pawlik & Pawlik Duo: Włodek Pawlik and Łukasz Pawlik play music from their “Pawlik & Pawlik Duo” acclaimed album!\n \nVideo (Pawlik & Pawlik Duo Live @ Studio im Agnieszki Osieckiej Polish Radio3):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Jq3YqSrMTI&t=148s\n\n\nTickets and more

SUMMARY:25.10|Book launch of The Dolls We Left Behind by Eugenia Krajewska
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to the launch of The Dolls We Left Behind by Eugenia Krajewska\, with readings from the book and conversations with the author’s editor and family.In 1940\, Soviet authorities deported more than a million people from eastern Poland\, tearing families from their homes and sending them to remote labour camps. Among them was Genia Wenserska\, just a child living in the border town of Mołodeczno\, whose world was upended overnight.The Dolls We Left Behind is her remarkable memoir\, drawn from vivid memories and diary entries written in exile. It traces her family’s arrest\, survival in a Siberian penal colony\, and eventual escape with others fleeing to join General Anders’ Army to safety in Persia.The book is both a personal testament and a historical witness to a period in history which should be better known in the west and is not forgotten by the descendants of the families who survived Stalin’s ruthless policies.Saturday 25 October 2025\, 3:30 – 5:00 pmMultimedia RoomPlease join us for this celebration of Polish wartime history and memory!
