Anna Maria Jopek (Poland, 1997) has just released thee albums. Polanna, Haiku and Sobremesa. Those three albums are available in a single publication entitled LUSTRA where the music is accompanied by the photo story in a hundred frames presenting the last three years. According to the official website of the singer, Polanna is "the search of the essence of Polish soul in music, in the arrangements of Gil Goldstein -multiple Grammy Award winner and Krzysztof Herdzin. The albums take a fresh look at both important and beautiful moments in the history of our music." Haiku it is an attempt to find a common factor for the Polish and Japanese music. The project was accomplished together with Makoto Ozone, the most outstanding Japanese jazz pianist. Anna Maria Jopek has visited Japan six times so far performing in the most important places in the country. More concerts in December and January 2012 after the album premiere in Tokyo." Sobremesa (dessert in english), is "a kind of "dessert" after the sophistication of the main course. It presents the stories of Lisbon, the city where Anna Maria Jopek has found her second home. It is a collection of Anna Maria Jopek's beloved songs from the world of Portuguese and lusophone culture." In this CD we can listen duets with Sara Tavares and Paulo de Carvalho, both participated in Eurovision (1974 and 1994, respectively). 

Eurovision party has started! Lots of press and eurofans invaded the arena! Polish rehearsal started and we are watching the official preview videoclip, but live! Very good voice of the singer and a very nice performance and choreography. Even being good it is nothing impressive. Norway starts! We are going from an european performance to an african-norwegian one. It is a very happy moment that will lead Norway to final!
