Przemek Dyakowski invites you to indulge in the timeless elegance of jazz with his latest album, "Take It Easy III." Released on December 31, 2012, under the Soliton label, this 55-minute collection is a testament to Dyakowski's mastery of the genre, featuring a repertoire of classic standards and hidden gems.
