Could you imagine music as a geyser? Erupting violently, waiting on tense standby, forever renewing itself… Or, just the contrary, as a sigh? An operatic sospiri, inhaling and exhaling, a tangible, rhythmic fluctuation… Or as walking with your eyes closed with full alertness to the sounds of unknown origin? That’s what Marcin Stanczyk’s music is like. The five pieces on this disc represent different, crucial areas of the creative work of Marcin Stanczyk – the most versatile and original author of this generation in Poland (and, along with Agata Zubel, one of the most internationally acclaimed).
