OP Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 27 Nov 2022 #100Krzesimir Debski is a name well known to the Polish posters on here but virtually unknown outside of Poland.He is a huge talent.A composer of classical and Jazz music,a great violinist and a founding member of one of Poland's greatest Jazz bands.youtu.be/ZYsY_q8piBwThis is the kind of "Smooth Jazz" Debski can be more associated with.youtu.be/gDHQuThDWfQMy last post from Debski is a light hearted one.Enjoy!youtu.be/G1IzZIcDhxk
OP Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 30 Apr 2023 #101This thread has been too quiet for too long.Time to revive it!This is Krzysztof Lepiarczyk.....a bit of a mouthful for non Poles but a true talent!youtube.com/watch?v=t5PNoJ7QiH4&pp=ygUda3J6eXN6dG9mIGxlcGlhcmN6eWsgZGllaGFyZDI%3D
Lyzko 45 | 9,440 2 May 2023 #104Along with many areas of culture, including world cinema until not too recently, perhaps the last twenty to thirty years.In books on film, often directors such as Wajda, Andrzejewski along with many others would get perhaps a few pages, if they were lucky. Even Polanski's sometimes not credited for his early Polish work. French, German, and Italian directors would have entire chapters devoted to them.Theater's another matter though. In stage design and direction, for a while, names like Jerzy Grotowski and Tadeusz Kantor loomed large, as did Krzysztof Penderecki in the area of experimental music.
OP Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 2 May 2023 #105@LyzkoFor once Lyzko, we agree.Polish culture is largely ignored in the rest of the world.But I don't know why.
Lyzko 45 | 9,440 3 May 2023 #106The answer's fairly self evident!No thanks to Poland's historically richer and traditionally more acknowledged neighbors such as Russia and Germany, Poland as well as Polish culture, sadly, became viewed until not too long ago, as a mere backwater, inferior (if you can believe it!!) to fellow European societies.Need I list the names and accomplishments of Poland but once again??King Jan Sobieski - helped drive out and keep out the Turks from Europe Nikolas Kopernikus - proved that the Earth revolves around the Sun Adam Mickiewicz - penned one of the greatest epic poems in any European language Frederic Chopin - made the piano sing as none other before or since Mme. Marie Curie (nee Manya Sklodowska) - pioneered uses of radium Dr. Kazimierz Funk - discovered uses of the vitamin supplement ...etc. etc. etc.
OP Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 3 May 2023 #107The answer's fairly self evident!Really?I don't think that you have answered my question.Polish culture is largely ignored in the rest of the world.But I don't know why
johnny reb 48 | 7,133 4 May 2023 #108I don't thinkReallyClap your hands, stomp your feet, Polish music can't be beat !
Lyzko 45 | 9,440 4 May 2023 #109If you include the toe-tappin' music of the goral in Zakopane, you're probably right, at least in Europe.@Miloslaw, I think my post answers at least part of your question, to be honest.
OP Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 2 Aug 2023 #110Merged: Polish Music.Time for more great Polish Music......There is not enough of it in this forum.....
OP Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 2 Aug 2023 #111It seems that very few Polams appreciate good Polish music, apart from one I can think of.But you true Poles need to celebrate the enormous amount of great Polish Music out there!Please post some of it on here!
OP Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 2 Aug 2023 #112The deepest irony is that I think Polish music sounds best sung in Polish.Yet singing in Polish will only expose you to a very limited Polish audience.If some of these artists could sing in English it would give them a much broader audience.The Scandinavians discovered this ages ago.
Lyzko 45 | 9,440 3 Aug 2023 #113Since rock songs especially are usually sung at louder decibels than normal, it really makes little difference in which language someone sings them, they're difficult to understand as it is.Was at a Nina Hagen concert in New York in the late '80's and she decided to sing s favorite of hers in English called "Dirty Deutschland". She might as well have been singing in Kiswahili for all I could make out LOL
Alien 20 | 5,042 3 Aug 2023 #114I like to listen to Polish music, for example, on vacation if I have access to Polish radio, but I am aware that Polish music in terms of technique and voices of performers is very far from world standards. Sometimes, listening to some old and new songs, I wonder how it was possible to record and release something like this.
Lyzko 45 | 9,440 4 Aug 2023 #115Far, yes. And yet in the world of opera, messrs. Jan Beczala and, "The Polish Thrush", "The Caruso of the Vistula", tenor Jan Kiepura, were none too shabby:-) Marcella Sembrich was also a Pole, I believe. There were many others as well.They too sang in multiple languages, by the way.
