Over The World We Know

Digital / CD · XJM25003 · 53:39

„Over The World We Know“ is Hania Derej's ninth album – and the first to incorporate electronic sounds. The Polish composer, pianist and conductor began working on it during the pandemic, confined to her room with only a piano and a computer. In that solitude she built a musical space filled with unfamiliar textures that offered her a sense of freedom. The album is a journey into the imagination – an exploration of new sonic landscapes and the infinite possibilities beyond what we know. From „Ocean“ through the title track „Over The World We Know“ and „Comet's View“ to „Coexistence“ and „Beside Us“, a richly melodic and emotional arc unfolds. Derej (b. 2005) studies jazz composition at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and symphonic conducting at the Music Academy in Cracow; she has written over 120 works and received the Polish Composers' Union „Young Composer 2023“ prize, among others. A strikingly mature statement from a very young voice.

Hania Derej (b. 2005) is a Polish composer, pianist and conductor, currently studying jazz composition at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and symphonic conducting at the Music Academy in Cracow. She has composed over 120 works across jazz, chamber, electronic and illustrative styles, with music released on nine albums, including recordings at Polish Radio, and her work is known for its melodic and emotional character. She has received numerous awards, including the "Young Composer 2023" prize from the Polish Composers' Union and the Triton Award at FAMA Festival 2024, topped the "New Hope" category in JAZZTOP in 2024 and was honoured as a "Young Promoter of Poland" in 2025. As a conductor she has led orchestras across Poland, Ukraine and the Czech Republic. Her album "Over the World We Know" is her ninth and the first to incorporate electronic sounds.
