Powiedzieć (“To tell”)

Piece for big symphonic orchestra

The piece was written in 2 days after a crash of the airplane Tu-154 with president Lech Kaczyński on the board near Smolensk in 2010. The official version at the time was the fault of a pilot. The Polish word “Powiedzieć” means “To tell”, to tell the truth about the catastrophe, as the composer felt it was.
