  • Description

    'Pierwsze dowodztwo' (The First Command)
    would not have been possible without
    Joseph Conrad's The Shadow Line. The text
    of the literary work was the starting point and inspiration
    to composer Adam Porebski to write the music. However, the composition is
    not maintained in the style of film or illustrative
    music. It is an almost fifty-minute
    long suite divided into ten sections with a consistently
    built narrative, constituting an independent
    musical composition employing an
    original combination of purely classical, film, and electroacoustic music.

    The Suite was written for the Hashtag Ensemble following a commission by the Polish Society for Contemporary Music in 2017 as
    part of the celebration of the year of Joseph Conrad.
