Lutoslawski, Witold – “Orchestral Music” – [Emi]

Belladonna   5/2/2012   A Library, CD

Lutoslawski (January 25, 1913 ??? February 7, 1994) an award winning European composers and one of the preeminent Polish musicians during his last three decades.
During his youth, Lutoslawski studied piano and composition in and early works were influenced by Polish folk music. His life was rich and full of adventure, much like many during the early 19th century in Eastern Europe. These three discs are VERY DRAMATIC in nature and could easily be film scores (or perhaps are?).
Disc 1- very tragic, ominous, sad
disc 2- still dramatic but moments of optimistic flute and light moments
Disc 3- almost too much to listen to, its very heavy, intense and overwhelming.
Let this be the soundtrack to your life.
