Pawel Lukaszewski is one of the most interesting contemporary Polish composers. His works have won the recognition of the audience of both domestic and international festivals, have been repeatedly recorded by renowned record labels, and also awarded and honoured at composition competitions. This CD, the second album in the series Lukaszewski Collection, titled Musica Profana, approximating the works by Pawel Lukaszewski, focuses on piano pieces selected by Wojciech Swietonski: an excellent young pianist who has been closely cooperating with the composer for many years. We are going to hear the piano as a solo instrument here, accompanied by chamber ensembles, as well as a song companion in vocal development of various texts of contemporary Polish poetry.
