Description
With this new album, Life & Beyond, Malgorzata Wasiucionek-Potera, and Andrzej Karalow explore the idea that music is not to be considered formally. On the contrary, it is supposed to make the listeners reflect on the essence of the existence of music and other forms of life.
The repertoire was conceived as a sensitive story, while the chosen works by Lutoslawski, Crumb, Bartok and Messiaen form a musically and emotionally coherent whole.
Wasiucionek-Potera and Karalow combine their full potential of experience, virtuosity and knowledge into the interpretations. However, above all, they share their sensitivity and paint the world with a pre-dominance of colours of nostalgia and silence, leaving space for individual feelings of the recipient.
FRYDERYK AWARDS NOMINATION: CHAMBER MUSIC ALBUM OF THE YEAR (Poland)
"The selection of material for Life & Beyond is well thought out. Individual compositions are connected by many non-obvious threads. […] It is worth going on this hour-long musical journey through the 20th century, not easy but certainly worth taking, with Malgorzata Wasiucionek-Potera and Andrzej Karalowo, through life and beyond." – prestoportal.pl
