Horntet is a jazz quintet and a democratic collective composed of five outstanding and highly promising young-generation Polish jazz musicians. Nominated for the Fryderyk Award in 2024, they are winners of almost every major jazz competition in Poland (including Jazz nad Odrą 2022 and Bielska Zadymka Jazzowa 2022) and achieved 2nd place in the prestigious European Young Artists’ Jazz Award in Burghausen in 2024. They have been widely recognized by music critics and journalists both in Poland and abroad.
Since the band's founding in 2019, initiated by pianist Bartłomiej Leśniak, the musicians have consistently worked on developing their unique and recognizable style. This style is built on original compositions blending mainstream jazz, free music, and contemporary classical influences, all while maintaining a Slavic undertone that continues the tradition of what is known as Polish Jazz. Confident in their chosen direction, the group released their debut album "Horntet" in 2023.
Band Members:
Szymon Ziółkowski – alto and soprano saxophones
Robert Wypasek – tenor and soprano saxophones
Bartłomiej Leśniak – piano
Mikołaj Sikora – double bass
Piotr Przewoźniak – drums
