  | WLODZIMIERZ KORCZ ~ 07 ZGLOS SIE (SOUNDTRACK)
GAD 036 (Barcode: 5901549197464) ~ POLAND ~ Soundtracks
Recorded: 1976 - 1987 Released: 2015
This album collects a series of compositions by pianist / composer Wlodzimierz KorczFind albums by this artist, which were used as the soundtrack of the Polish TV thriller series called "07 Zglos SieFind albums with this title" (07 Call In). Most of the thirty five short (around two minutes on average) tracks are instrumentals and only a few are songs which include lyrics. The music was recorded mostly by the Polish Radio and TV Orchestra, which featured many top Polish Jazz players active at the time and was directed by Andrzej KurylewiczFind albums by this artist. The exact lineups of the orchestra and other combos are undocumented.
The music, although with a certain Jazz tinge, is mostly just easy listening material, which has a certain nostalgic value, but not a real musical impact. What might have been ideal as a soundtrack does not really hold water on its own. Of course some of these compositions are really nice, and are beautifully performed, like the closing track which features saxophonist Henryk MiskiewiczFind albums by this artist, but by and large they are pretty forgettable.
Of course for generation of Polish TV viewers this music is an endless source of nostalgic memories, which take them back in time. The cult status of this series, which is still regularly screened by the Polish TV, seems to be everlasting, with young generations of viewers discovering it anew.
