Cellists Andrea and Dorota formed Tara Fuki twenty years ago. They are celebrating this remarkable collaboration with a new album titled Motyle (Indies Scope records), released six years after their previous recording Winna.
Although the duo released songs in Czech, Andrea admits that Polish will remain the main language for their songs: “Czech lyrics are always more of an exception in our work, because Polish with its sonic softness gives us bigger wings. However, somehow it came together and there will be three Czech songs on this record.”
A special guest for a number of songs is drummer Miloš Dvořáček: “Inviting Miloš as a guest on the record was a clear and only choice. He has a great talent for sailing into music sensitively and it was a pleasure to cooperate with him in the studio.”
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the Tara Fuki’s plans. “Protective measures and the fact that we each live in a different state complicated the creation of the record for us; it was supposed to be recorded in March and released in November. We can be glad that we finally managed to record it in July and the release party has been postponed to the spring of 2021“, says Andrea Konstankiewicz. “We are very happy that this record is also a symbolic culmination of our 20-year collaboration. It’s a big chunk of life that is connected with Tara Fuki’s music, with searching for expression, sharing, traveling and discovering something new.”
