Early life and education

Rani was born in Gdańsk. She studied music at the Feliks Nowowiejski Music School in Gdańsk and the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw.[1][2]

Career

Trained as a classical pianist, Rani began incorporating jazz into her work during music school.[3] In 2015, she collaborated with Dobrawa Czocher on the album Biala Flaga, featuring their arrangements of music by fellow Pole Grzegorz Ciechowski. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Rani started experimenting with improvisation and composing.[4] She now works within the post-classical (also known as neo-classical) music genre.[5] She has blurred traditional distinctions between jazz, classical, and house music.[6]
