Rest well. [November 23, 1933 - March 29, 2020]

[@kremowka3757]

Mum: What kind of music do you like? Me: Its complicated

[@NemorisInferioris]

This is amazing. One of the best compositions ever. It shows the unique sounds you can make with such classical and acoustic instruments by playing them in an unorthodox manner. Creates a sinister sound. Notice how NONE of the players were moving to a rhythm, like most orchestras do.

[@arktos3095]

Yea, like everyone look like They all have different notes.

[@ryanpham3308]

Some of Penderecki's works-this among them-were composed without bass, cello, violin or viola sections. Just different sheets for each musician.

This is pretty funny to watch. Never again will I be able to hear a horror soundtrack without imagining 40-odd people going mental with some stringed instruments.

[@cloudydazeeee]

Oh yeah! Whenever I listen to intense classical horror stuff I always imagine how fun it would be to play them live and go mad with the strings. 🖤

[@gpeddino]

I saw Penderecki live last year, it was pretty overwhelming. A true master of his craft.

Loveee how it starts with the bass. Low, deep, brooding, slowly creeping. As if something awaits in the dark, stirring from dormancy. Sends shivers down my spine. ✨

Oh my gosh, why have I only just discovered this now? This is exactly how I want my music to be 🖤 Absolute perfection.

How different versions of this can vary from 6 minutes long to 11-plus, I don't know. I do know that this one is the composer leading his own work, so I'll take his timing.

Es como si los instrumentos de cuerdas se hubiesen convertido en bandadas de pájaros,. En insectos en vuelo, en un verdadero ambiente. Febril de convivencia. Los instrumentos de cuerdas ya trascendieron sus capacidades sonoras.El Compositor ha sabido dosificar exploraciones percusivas sonoras más allá de lo imaginable. Estoy Fascinada!! Es genial. El resultado va más allá de lo imaginable. Mis respetos Gran Maestro.

[@ronald220964]

[@AndyChamberlainMusic]

Getting the basses moving around gives you extra sub beats that make it even scarier, amazing composition

[@GhANeC]

To close one’s eyes and just allow oneself to receive the waves of sounds coming from this. Equally triggers many different waves of feeling, but overall, alive.

[@jacob2olsen248]

Deeply disturbing and flamboyant... One of the greatest XXth century composers. I thank you very much, indeed !

[@Scriabin_fan]

It blows my mind how someone can envision these sounds in their head and then make them a reality. Truly a work of genius, I never thought that some of the sounds I heard from this were even possible.

[@ФедорРыжов-э3ц]

В самом конце 90х у нас в Тверской филармонии впервые в СССР и России исполнялось это произведение филармоническим оркестром под управлением Трушкина. 48 смычковых инструментов в филармонии не хватало, поэтому пригласили из других театров. Для контроля этого исполнения прилетел сам Пендерецкий. По реакции зала можно было понять насколько все обескуражены этим произведением. Пендерецкий лучший из польских композиторов. Шопен всеми любим и понятен, но чтобы понять Пендерецкого надо подняться самому.

Some of you need to read about his early works and what he was trying to achieve instead of bashing him.

Bashing is all Sheeple seem to do now. This is fascinating as was Threnody for the victims of Hiroshima. Also it actually sounds like many people talking at once near the midfle of this piece...amazing.

[@michaeldrudzinski2527]

He was a child in Poland during WWII, watching his country brutalized. That had to inform the depth of emotional chaos in his work.

[@firstnamelastname8850]

RIP. I didn't like Penderecki's stylistic evolution, from avant-garde to neo-romanticism. I heard him once on the radio, interviewed as to why the change, and answering "how long can one remain a modernist?". Well, as shown by Ligeti and Boulez: all your life, if you decide to do so. So Penderecki's later change, starting with the Second Symphony, sounded to me something of a lazy attitude. As exemplified by this piece, Polymorphia, Penderecki was a genius when he invented new clusters of sounds, with huge dramatic and emotional impact, not when he imitated, I don't know, Allan Pettersson (interestingly, Penderecki fully embraced his new - or old - style shortly before Pettersson's death). But, for those avant-garde pieces, from Strophen and Threnody to the victims of Hiroshima to St. Luke's Passion, Utrenja and Devils of Loudun, he will remain as one of the towering giants of the 20th century, and I'll listen with always the same sense of awe.

C’est comme si l’on entrait dans un de ces palaces d’Europe centrale à l’architecture pâtissière style religieuse au chocolat. Dans chaque pièce où l’on pénètre, les individus sont habillés en noir et blanc des pieds à la tête. Ils ont cette étrange absence dans les yeux tout en vous regardant fixement. Les plafonds sont peints, le mobilier est d’un luxe indescriptible et le marbre veiné des tables reflète l’évanescente sérénité de l’endroit ! Tout y est rigide, jusqu’au temps qui s’écoule derrière les lambris, comme aux aguets .....
