N O T E S
During the past decades, Krzysztof Penderecki has created both sacred and secular works of musico-historical significance within the genre of large-scale vocal symphonic music including Lukas-Passion,  Polish Requiem, Credo, his 7th and 8th Symphonies and recently also Kadisz. He has now augmented this impressive series of works with a commentary for the bicentenary of Frédéric Chopin’s birth which he has commemorated with a songcycle comprising settings of Polish texts.
