Once in a while, I'll be posting short excerpts of songs I've worked on, isolating a particular section like just vocals, sound effects or, like in this case, a horn arrangement (something I'm trying to learn more about these days).

This is the closing chorus section of one of my favourite songs I've done, Pick Me Up. This section features a sax solo, accompanied by a horn arrangement (trumpet, sax, trombone), with a bit of organ, bass and drums. All horn sounds are VST instruments, from Acoustic Samples (great company for high quality instrument sounds).

And here's a link to the full song; thanks for listening!

Andrzej Karalow – Some whispers of mists and water above, hidden in the rocks (2024) for clarinet, violin, cello and piano

The work is inspired by japanese poetry dedicated to landscapes, nature and its atmosphere and it reflects the sound and mood of constantly flowing water. In the steadiness of the subtle wall of sound, I try to integrate and mix timbres of all of the instruments. This composition can be connected to ambiental sounds, to static structures, which are slowly fluctuating or evolving over time. It can be also connected to water flowing through the waterfall.

Andrzej Karałow, b. 1991 is a Polish pianist, composer and improviser based in Warsaw (Poland). He is currently an assistant professor at the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw. Doctor of Musical Arts.
He is a laureate of many national and international piano competitions, e.g. Milosz Magin Competition in Paris, Konzerteum in Athens, or Frederic Chopin National Competition in Warsaw. He performed in prestigious concert halls in the country and abroad, also with accompaniment of renowned orchestras [Warsaw National Philharmonic, Sinfonia Varsovia], under the baton of Ewa Strusińska or Jakub Chrenowicz. Equally successful as a composer, he is a prize winner of, among others, the 2nd Karol Szymanowski International Composition Competition in Katowice, or Opera Compostion Competition in Miskolc, Hungary, where he was praised for his professionalism, imagination and artistic sensibility.
