Tomasz Stanko - Polish Radio Sessions brings together 39 previously unreleased recordings from 1970-1991. The visual concept is based on the idea of a master's mark, a distilled signature of the artist. A black and white typographic composition built from the letters of his surname turns typography into form and rhythm. Six covers reinterpret one motif, forming a modular whole that reflects the tension and focus of his music.
