26.09.2008, MLECZARNIA (ul. Włodkowica 5) - The local multi-instrumental group “Małe Instrumenty“ played a late-night concert as a part of Avant Music Festival (19.09.2008 - 27.10.2008). “Małe Instrumenty” means “Small instruments,” and as its name indicates, the stage is filled with many small instruments; Some of them look like toys for children and some others really are just toys for children. In the interview, we asked Paweł Romańczuk, a key member of the band, how they musically integrate the use of those toys that never seem to make the sounds we want, and how much of their performance involves improvisation.
