Description
AUSKO, the Chamber Orchestra of Tychy and their conductor Marek Mos perform Gorecki's Zan Tontemiquico, followed by two pieces dedicated to the Silesian Trio: Gorecki's Trio Concerto and the Trio Titanic.
The title "Zan Tontemiquico" is drawn from a poem by Tochihuitzin, a prince and poet who lived at the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries. The poem was written in Nahuatl, which was spoken in the present Mexico before the arrival of Spaniards. In a free translation the title means "We only come to dream." This programme piece for orchestra, superbly performed by the Aukso ensemble directed by Marek Mos, is followed by two compositions dedicated to the musicians of the Silesian Trio. The Titanic Trio is inspired by a whole range of cultural associations, not only musical, present in the legend of the Titanic, including the poetry of Czeslaw Milosz. The works present the main characteristics of the pieces by Mikolaj Gorecki: musical erudition, allusiveness, atmosphere, and stylistic diversity.
