About
Song of Hope and Love (1997), a four-movement sonata for cello and piano, was dedicated to the memory of Polish Jews, victims of the Holocaust. The work's inspiration is a poem entitled Flight by the Polish Nobel laureate Czesław Miłosz. The sonata's dramatic character does not exclusively illustrate the tragedy of the Second World War. The piece provides a musical perspective on the theme and expresses a desire to seek the 'hope and love' evoked in the title.
Sixteen Pictures from Salvador Dalí's Exhibition (2004) is a cycle of works commissioned by the city of Figueres to mark the centenary of the birth of the Catalan painter born there. Each of the miniatures in the cycle refers to a different painting by Salvador Dalí. These miniatures offer sonic interpretations, or a complementary commentary, to be understood alongside the contemplation of the title painting - a source of profound artistic experiences.
Joanna Bruzdowicz was born on 17 May 1943 in Warsaw and died on 3 November 2021 in Taillet. She was an émigré composer, spending most of her life in Belgium and France. Her rich and varied oeuvre has been recognised in Western Europe, but it seems that she is still unknown to a wider audience in Poland. The scope of her creative activity covered the spheres of scenic, chamber, electroacoustic, symphonic and film music.
