STANO PALÚCH / PREMENA (TRANSFORMATIONS) / SVK

No longer the miraculous discovery he was when he entered the scene and everyone asked where he came from, however, for the brilliant violinist and composer, what he said at the beginning is still true: “I only enjoy music, music, music”.

Violinist, arranger and multi-instrumentalist Stano Palúch stands out on the Slovak music scene as a versatile player who excels in swing, fusion, world music, but also in classical and folk music. He regularly performs with his Pacora trio and is a sought-after partner of many Slovak and Czech artists for his extraordinary artistry and versatility.

TRANSFORMATION project

The Premena project and group was founded by Sano Palúch in 2021. He says about the project: “For a long time I have been carrying music in my head that draws melodically from the Slovak national folklore tradition, uses jazz improvisation and rhythmic construction, and, among other things, polymeric structures and irregular rhythms. The basic line-up consists of musicians with whom I have been working for some time and whose musical personalities bring an unrepeatable sound and character to these compositions.”

In addition to the author and violinist Stanislav Palúch, the group includes cimbal player Marcel Comendant, double bassist Peter Korman and drummer Michal Fedor. The project debuted at the important Slovak festival “Viva musica” in 2021.
