(Prog related, Organ music) Jozef Skrzek - U Stop Krzyza - 2003, FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

This is a brand new album by the former leader/ keyboardist of the Polish progressive instrumental band SBB. Recorded in a church using pipe organ, Micro moog and Mini moog, the result is sacred music at its best. Powerful keyboard themes resonate, while striking moog patterns fill in the spaces between each resounding tone cluster. Even doubters, if they close their eyes, will catch a glimpse of the light when listening to the music invoked here by Skrzek

The idea of this record was born after the wonderful concert which Jozef Skrzek played in the Holy Cross Basilica in Warsaw in February 2003. The music were recorded during two midnight sessions in April 2003: in Holy Cross Basilica in Warsaw and in the Jesus the King Cathedral in Katowice.

On the mighty organ of the Cathedral played Jozef Skrzek the new great instrumental work, divided here into three parts: Overture - At the foot of the Holy Cross - Coda. This is really contemporary organ music, enough far from the vain of his older compositions.

The rest were played on baroque organ of the Basilica in Warsaw; Jozef Skrzek also sang and played here on several analogue Moog synthesisers. The two tracks are to hear for the first time: "The splendour of His presence" and "Adoration"; the another four pieces are well-known Skrzek's evergreens

As mentioned before, this music is very different from the kind included in the first two parts of the Easter Special. You can play this one during the Easter dinner without being afraid of any shadows lurking in the dark corners.

Ah, and one more remark. I placed this upload in "progressive rock" category, mainly because of the performer and his association with the great progressive band SBB, and also because it is referred to as "prog" on several web sites. However, this is not really a rock album at all. I'm not even sure if it is much "progressive"... Nevertheless, it is quite suitable for the occasion, and it is worth listening to anyway. So, I hope you enjoy it.
