Watch the 1993 BBC feature about Gorecki and his 3rd symphony, because the cross fading between Gorecki himself telling what inspired him to write the symphony, the sheer heart rendering beauty of the music, beautiful landscape shots from the present day Zakopane area in Poland, and the pure horror of black and white films from the Nazi death camps - the impact will mesmerise you.
Talk about first rate editing and supreme music performance blending into one. Sheer magic!

RIP Gorecki :(

This man greatly inspires me...
I was against minimalism... but I was foolisch. It isnt about the difficulty of notes... it is what these notes tell.. which mood they create. When I will write music in the future, I will think of this...

I remember this was number 1 in Classic fm charts for about 12 months back in early '90's. Dawn Upshaws voice is so natural and un laboured. Beautiful! Takes me back to when I came over so dreamy every time I heard it.

It's beautiful! Which movement of the Symphony is this?

I think it's a mix of the second and third movements (sorry made these years ago)

Gorecki's Symphony no.3 (Symphony of Sorrowful Songs). The first part is a message that was found written on a Gestapo cell by an 18 year old young woman. It read: "O Mamo nie płacz nie—Niebios Przeczysta Królowo Ty zawsze wspieraj mnie" (Oh Mamma do not cry—Immaculate Queen of Heaven support me always).
Heart breaking singing by Dawn Upshaw.
