Description

“In 1967, Hans Werner Henze assured his Polish colleague Krzysztof Penderecki that he had “recently composed music in which the power of the spiritual and emotional material had given rise to a simplicity and essentiality that went far beyond the concept of ‘modern music’.” (…) How much this judgment still holds true today is shown by the new NAXOS release. The label brings us up to date with Penderecki and demonstrates excellence in performance and sound.” (Eberhard Kneipel, Ostthüringische Zeitung, February 2008) “… very emotional works that, under Antoni Wit’s compelling direction, become lasting, moving experiences.” (Pizziacato)
