Strong Together. A strong title, and an apt one at that, as it accurately pinpoints the quality flowing through Quidam’s latest release: a deluxe DVD and double-CD package documenting a truly outstanding live performance of the band’s already well established material along with some intriguing musical surprises. All compositions were rendered flawlessly by the band and their talented guests: a barefoot violinist Tylda Ciolkosz, and an incendiary saxophonist Piotr Rogoz. Yet the way the musicians played during this concert turned out to be even more important than what they actually played and sang. Why? Because never before was the band’s sound so natural, spontaneous and full-blooded in a true rock fashion - qualities brought forward by superb sound production, especially impressive in 5.1 system. The longest-serving band members - Zbyszek Florek (keyboards), Maciek Meller (guitars) and Jacek Zasada (woodwind), with the support of a fabulous rhythm section (Mariusz Ziolkowski on bass guitar, and Maciej Wroblewski on drums), recreated here their trademark soundscapes with unmatched ingenuity. The middle of the stage undoubtedly belonged to Bartek Kossowicz who really put his heart into the vocals, carrying across the whole spectrum of emotions - there was a place for melancholy, longing, raw power and even a pinch of irony...

A perfect visual realization of this production deserves to be mentioned separately. The live show was filmed in HD using 7 independent cameras and was later tastefully and professionally edited by Rafal Wieczorek of Rufio Film studio.

Apart from the over two hours long live footage, the DVD includes several extras: a short backstage documentary, a photo gallery and the visuals accompanying the live version of “Alone Together”.

The latter, as well as the box set artwork, deserve a short mention of their own. It is truly one of the most beautiful editions of this kind in Poland. As in the case of the “Alone Together” album design, the entire artwork again has been created by Michal Florczak, a recent graduate from Birmingham Institute of Art and Design, UK.
