He died just before his 33rd birthday, at the top of his musical abilities and the start of his international career. Nowadays, a competition for young jazz violinists has been named after him. He was also an inspiring person who marked the lives of many people. The Krakow-born virtuoso is now remembered by both his family members and jazz stars, not only from Poland. The portrayal is enhanced with unique archival materials from the times of communist Poland, including the ones from behind the Iron Curtain, while animations express the unique character of Seifert’s music as well as its evolution.
