The "Black Lodge" DVD series has arrived as part of the "Necromancer" series—a project that reissues rare titles from handmade, collector-focused labels (originally distributed in very limited circles) using officially acquired master recordings. These rare titles are now available again at an affordable price, featuring a special reissue emblem.

This is pro-shot live footage of the brilliant Tomasz Stanko, a key figure of the ECM label.
The performance took place at JazzBaltica—a familiar venue for jazz fans—supporting his masterpiece album, *From the Green Hill*. The lineup mirrors the album, featuring fellow European virtuoso John Surman on saxophone and the legendary Jon Christensen on drums. Far from the complexities often associated with free jazz or spiritual jazz, the music is accessible yet exotic and truly magnificent, incorporating the unique sounds of the bandoneon and violin.
