Canis Major feat. Toshinori Kondo

Levity is Jacek Kita (piano, synths), Piotr Domagalski (basses) and Jerzy Rogiewicz (percussion).
Their debut, self titled album released in 2009 by buoyant label Lado ABC was exploring the boundaries of improvisation in classical jazz song form. All pieces written by Levity, ranged from ethereal „scandinavian” sounding lyricism to complex, polytonal broken beats played with punk energy. Next was „Chopin Shuffle” (Universal 2010), a concept (double) album with all the pieces based on Frederic Chopins’s cycle of Preludes op. 28. The band has extended its sound with synths, electric basses, samples, and amazing production by Marcin Bors. Special guests on the album were Toshinori Kondo, Gabriela Kulka, Raphael Roginski, Tomasz Duda and Grzegorz Uzdanski.
Levity's latest album "Afternoon delights" containing 12 fully improvised tracks was released 1st december 2011.
