The pieces on the album were recorded by the unique ACh Duo, formed by guitarist Aleksander Pankowski vel Jankowski, a graduate of the Karol Szymanowski Academy of Music in Katowice and harpist Noemi Hańczyk, a graduate student at The Karol Lipiński Academy of Music in Wrocław.

The name of the disc is inspired by the title of one of the parts of the work ‘’Suite in modo polonico” by Alexandre Tansman, which was included on the album, in a special, original arrangement for guitar and harp, made by the composer himself. The recording of Suite is the very first full recording of this piece in the world and it was never fully recorded after its creation.

The album also contains original transcriptions of Fryderyk Chopin's works arranged by Anna Wołowczyk - Prelude in D flat major, Op. 28 No. 15 and by the performers themselves - Waltz in C sharp minor, Op. 64 No. 2. The entire publication is complemented by compositions played solo by the artists - Grzegorz Jurczyk's ‘’Fogbound Mountains” for guitar and ‘’Deux images’’ for harp, composed by Roman Ryterband.
