Piotr Rubik - Santo Subito: Cantobiografia Jana Pawła II, released 02 Oct 2009 Music

Posted by hue at Oct. 15, 2009

What is Santo Subito? Here is what the author of the lyrics wrote about it: The literary and musical form devised for this project, which we have named C A N T O B I O G R A P H Y, portrays the life and work of John Paul II with the language of song.
And the language of song is full of emotions, unexpected associations and undisguised feelings. This is not a story of a historian, full of dates and analyses, these are rather impressions on consecutive stages of life of Karol Wojtyła - John Paul II, from his childhood until the moment he completed fulfilment of his unsparing service.

Henryk Szeryng - Henryk Szeryng: Bach & Vivaldi (2023) Music

Genre: Classical / Label: Decca

Szeryng was born in 1918 to a wealthy Polish industrialist whose wife had a great love of music. Studies on the piano were abandoned for the violin, though Szeryng remained skilled at the keyboard for the rest of his life. Szeryng progressed quickly on his new instrument and by age nine was sufficiently proficient to perform the Mendelssohn concerto for famed violinist Bronislaw Hubermann, a friend of the family. On Hubermann's advice Szeryng was sent to Berlin to study with Carl Flesch; Szeryng would later declare that his technical prowess was solely due to that masterful teacher's influence. Two years later in 1933, Szeryng made his debut performance in Warsaw with the Beethoven concerto under Bruno Walter. That same year he embarked on a minor concert tour, soloing with orchestras in Bucharest, Vienna, and Paris.

Zbigniew Preisner - Requiem for my friend [1998] Music

Posted by retan at Aug. 26, 2009

Requiem for My Friend: (Zbigniew Preisner) In the mid-1990's, Polish composer Zbigniew Preisner was working on a collaboration with his close associate, director Krzysztof Kieslowski, and screenwriter Krzysztof Piesiewicz that would have produced the kind of massive operatic concert at the Acropolis in Athens, Greece that Vangelis and others had strived to create through the years. Their collaboration was quite fruitful, yielding the films and scores for the Colours Trilogy (Blue, White, and Red) as well as Dekalog and The Double Life of Veronique…

In 1973, Ian Curtis, at age seventeen, is living with his parents, Kevin and Doreen, and his sister, Carole. In a chemistry class, he daydreams, possibly displaying a symptom of petit mal, a minor form of the epilepsy which was to develop later in his life. It is during this period of his life that he first meets Debbie Woodruff, who is dating his best friend Nick. After bonding over a love of music and Ian's penchant for poetry, they attend a David Bowie concert together, realizing their mutual attraction. Ian proposes and Debbie accepts, and though extremely young, they marry and move in together. His interest in married life fading soon after, however, Ian retreats to the solitude of his room, where he writes poetry, as Debbie decorates the house. In 1976, after attending a Sex Pistols gig, Ian and Debbie meet Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, and Terry Mason, the members of a band who disliked their lead singer. Ian approaches the trio at the end of the gig, suggesting that he become their vocalist instead, which leads to the formation of Warsaw. With Stephen Morris recruited as the drummer, and Mason taking over managerial duties, the band anxiously play their first gig.

La vie de Ian Curtis, leader du groupe mythique de rock anglais Joy Division. Tiraillé entre sa vie de famille, sa gloire naissante et son amour pour une autre femme, Ian Curtis s'est suicidé le 18 mai 1980 - à la veille de la première tournée américaine du groupe qui s'annonçait triomphale. Ian Curtis a changé le rock, sans le vouloir, sans le savoir.

A Due - Kari Krikku, Anssi Karttunen (2007) Music

Posted by peotuvave at May 2, 2014

Recorded over a 13-year time span (1992–2005), this is a remarkable disc. On first glance, it screams “specialist.” A whole hour-plus of music by territory-specific composers for clarinet or bass clarinet and cello may send many prospective purchasers heading in the opposite direction. But they would be forgetting the innate musicality of the Finns.
