Gerard Lebik

Gerard Lebik was a Polish saxophonist, composer, improviser and sound artist. He came up in improvised jazz, playing tenor saxophone and contra alto clarinet, and turned increasingly to electronics and installations about the perception of sound waves, time and psychoacoustics, built from computer synthesis, acoustic generators, reeds and compressed air. He co-founded the Sanatorium of Sound festival in Sokołowsko. Lebik played in Foton Quartet with trumpeter Artur Majewski (Zomo Hall, Not Two, 2010) and often worked with Piotr Damasiewicz.
