HENRYK GÓRECKI (b.1933): Concerto-Cantata for Flute and Orchestra, Little Requiem for a Certain Polka for Piano and 13 Instruments, Op. 66, Harpsichord Concerto, Op. 40 (piano version), 3 Dances, Op. 34.

Description: World Premiere Recording of the 1992 Concerto-Cantata, a 21-minute piece in four movements very much in the style of the better-known Little Requiem - simple motifs varied in orchestration and with dynamics ranging from virtually silent to ear-shattering. The subversive keyboard concerto is joined by the 1973 Dances which are as close as Góreckt ever came to the folk-tinged directness of Wojciech Kilar. Anna Górecka (piano), Carol Wincenc (flute), Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra; Antoni Wit.
