Label GB

ECM Records, also known as "The Creative Label," is a German independent label that was co-founded by producer Manfred Eicher, Manfred Scheffner, and Karl Egger in Munich (Pasing) in 1969. With the label code LC 2516 / LC 02516, ECM stands for Edition of Contemporary Music and focuses on jazz and Western classical music. They showcase both acoustic and electronic artists who produce eclectic versions of contemporary music.

ECM's extensive catalog features a wide range of genres, from contemporary works by renowned composers like Steve Reich, Arvo Pärt, and Philip Glass to experimental and electronic jazz from artists such as Nils Petter Molvær, Pat Metheny Group, and Jan Garbarek. Over the past 40+ years, ECM has released more than 1500 recordings that have been acclaimed for their exceptional music quality, creative production techniques, and outstanding sound.

Although an independent label, ECM titles are distributed by Universal Music Group (UMG) in the US, Japan, and throughout Europe. However, they have also collaborated with other distributors over the years. Notably during the period when Polydor distributed ECM products in Germany; [l447694] was used for pressing identified by a CP suffix on labels and runouts. Afterward,[l25946] became their primary distributor.

Marcin Wasilewski Trio is a highly acclaimed jazz ensemble consisting of Marcin Wasilewski on piano, Sławomir Kurkiewicz on double bass, and Michał Miśkiewicz on drums. With their exceptional musical talent and deep understanding of each other's playing, the trio creates captivating and soulful compositions that push the boundaries of traditional jazz. Their unique sound blends elements of classical music with modern improvisation, resulting in a truly innovative and mesmerizing listening experience. Whether performing live or recording in the studio, Marcin Wasilewski Trio never fails to captivate audiences with their virtuosity and artistic expression.

"There's a galaxy of piano trios in today's jazz universe," the BBC Music Magazine has noted, "but few shine as bright as Marcin Wasilewski's". On its seventh ECM album the multifaceted Polish group illuminates a characteristically wide span of music.

On En Attendant, collectively created pieces are juxtaposed with Wasilewski's malleable "Glimmer of Hope", Carla Bley's timeless "Vashkar", The Doors' hypnotic "Riders On The Storm" and a selection from Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations. Fluidity is the hallmark , allied to the deep listening made possible by more than a quarter-century of collaborative music-making by pianist Wasilewski, bassist Kurkiewicz and drummer Miskiewicz.

En Attendant was recorded at Studios La Buissonne in the South of France in August 2019, and produced by Manfred Eicher.
