Free Music Notes for Lutoslawski: Twenty Polish Christmas Carols; Lacrimosa; Five Songs
Free Music Review: Polish or Opera ?????
Hit: 2 Stars
Quite frankly, I was very disappointed in this selection. I read the reviews on how easy it was to follow, etc... I did not understand a word of it. This really sounds like a soprano opera. I had my grandparents and parents listen and no one had any idea. If you are expecting any song that you may recognize, think again. Free Music Review: Marvelous!
Hit: 5 Stars
Marvelous production on all fronts. The carols themselves are the heart and soul of the Polish religous and Christmas spirit. The arrangements recast traditional and beloved kolendy in modern adaptations, reflecting Lutoslawski's ample skills as vocal and orchestral arranger. The notes give the background a newcomer to the genre needs, and those already familiar with the songs will learn more. The cover art is wonderful. The singing and orchestral accompaniment are beyond reproach. Downloading the lyrics, in Polish and English, will take 23 pages, but that's a small price to play to appreciate this examplary release. Wspaniale to all concerned. Buy it!
