Magda performing World Music

Magda Piskorczyk invites the listeners to a musical journey through her closest sounds, cultures and traditions. She presents multicolour, dynamic and very personal collage, blending the music with the Afro-American roots (blues, soul, funk, jazz) and the ethnic rhythms or melodies, especially from the Western Africa.
She sings in many languages: English, Polish, Creole, Spanish, Italian, Tamashek, Bambara…

Magda offers various concert programs:

  • Afro Groove – mixture of Afro-American (blues, soul, funk, jazz, gospel)  and ethnic music, especially from Africa plus her own compositions (usually in trio)
  • World Travels – music travel through cultures and traditions (possible extended line-up with percussion, ethnic or wind instruments as well as cooperation with local musians)
  • Mahalia – traditional gospel songs in tribute to Mahalia Jackson (usually extended line-up and 5-person choir)

In March 2017 Magda traveled to Marocco where she met (again!) and cooperated with Abdou Ouardi:
