We give our third record into your hands. This one is very special for us as we have brought up subjects which have always been present in our lives. It’s a concept album consisting of eight instrumental tracks. Each of them is inspired by histories of Auschwitz prisoners and by the fate of people living on the surrounding lands, living in the shadow of the camp during the Second World War. The date of the premiere is not accidental – today we celebrate 75th anniversary of German Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp Auschwitz – Birkenau liberation. Today is also an International Holocaust Remembrance Day established by the UN General Assembly 15 years ago.

We worked for a long time on this record in order to fully capture the emotions that have accompanied us while we were going deeper into particular topics. Visit our website www.besides.pl. You’ll find more detailed descriptions of individual stories which inspired us to create tracks appearing on the record.

We invite you to listen and to read.
