ROMA CANTATA & 3 SONGS

🇵🇱 Po instrumentalnym autorskim albumie Arabesque Overnight, tym razem przedstawiam Państwu swoją muzykę wokalną. Oba utwory powstały z inspiracji wspaniałą i niezwykle barwną poezją Dominika Górnego. Kantata Romska na sopran i fortepian, wzorem mojego skrzypcowego koncertu-show Wieczór w krainie czardasza, zabiera słuchaczy w muzyczną podróż śladami taborów cygańskich po Europie. Obecne są więc tu wątki węgierskie, rumuńskie, bałkańskie, czy hiszpańskie, a także nawiązanie do twórczości Paganiniego oraz parafraza słynnego Czardasza Montiego ze sprechgesangiem i scatem w partii wokalnej.
Środkowym ogniwem jest abstrakcyjny, a zarazem „cygański” ambigram na fortepian solo, gdzie tekst nutowy po odwróceniu o 180 stopni, wzorem liter „X”, „N”, „S”, czy „Z”, jest tożsamy z pozycją wyjściową. Całość wieńczy romski hymn Djelem, Djelem z udziałem żeńskiego chóru, lirycznie kontrapunktowany przez solowy sopran. 
Cykl trzech pieśni powstał pierwotnie na tenor i harfę, co wpłynęło znacząco na fakturę partii fortepianu, a każde z ogniw posiada różnorodny charakter: od nieco introwertycznej modlitwy, poprzez epizod liryczno-taneczny, aż do dalekiego spojrzenia w stronę kultury Orientu.  ---  🇬🇧 After my instrumental solo album Arabesque Overnight, I would now like to present to you my vocal music. Both works were inspired by the wonderful and richly colorful poetry of Dominik Górny.
The Romani Cantata for soprano and piano, modeled after my violin concerto-show An Evening in the Land of Czardas, takes listeners on a musical journey following the paths of Romani caravans across Europe. It features Hungarian, Romanian, Balkan, and Spanish motifs, references to Paganini’s work, as well as a paraphrase of Monti’s famous Czardas, enriched with Sprechgesang and scat elements in the vocal part.
At the center lies an abstract yet “Romani” ambigram for solo piano: the score, when rotated 180 degrees, remains identical to the original—like the letters “X,” “N,” “S,” or “Z.” The work concludes with the Romani anthem Djelem, Djelem, featuring a female choir lyrically counterpointed by the solo soprano.
The cycle of three songs was originally composed for tenor and harp, which significantly influenced the texture of the piano part. Each movement has its own distinct character: from a somewhat introverted prayer, through a lyrical-dance episode, to a far-reaching glance toward the culture of the Orient.
