  Description of the initiative (written by P. Radzinski for the program of the concert)

Dear visitor !
Using the ocasion of our concert, I would like to share with You
Some personal soughts.
Our Civilization has entered the fourth year of XXI century.
It gets into far Galaxies and technical achievements are developing in a crazy Rythm. In uncontrolled Rythm, which starts to controll our reality education.
Where do we moving?
Or maybe we have to simplify:
From where do we come and which values do we want to give
To the next generations?
What message brings the Art in this races of Civilizations?
Maybe instead of making questions and indicate way of developement Art wants only to be apprecited by commercialised enviroment?
Maybe it betrades its historical traditions,
because formerly it was in opposition to master rules?
This concert is a moment of reflection which
I, together with my younger colleagues, would like to share with you.
So we invite you for listening:

EVENINGS IN THREE PARTS

Why in three?
Becuse we inviting for consideration three fundamental bases of European Civilization which escort us from Ancient Greek philosophers’ times.

I – TRUTH

L. v. Betchoven – Sonata F-dur op.24 SPRING
Sonata A-dur po.48 KREUTZER

This music includes humanism of the highest probe.
Humanism – widely known therm, but very often others abuse it with an aim to hide mistaken theories.
How could it be when the same Civilisation have created Betchoven and at the same time gas camera and crematorium?
From where this pessimistic questions did come?
They have appeared during the execution of Betchovben’s Sonats
In Krakow Sinagoghe on Kasimierz in 2002.
Where did they go, those who have prayed here?
Were destroyed – Holocaust was prepared for them.
This is the way the nation, to which belongs Betchoven, have understood the meaning of Humanism, the message of Betchoven’s music?
Or this was the Humanism to call them for race cleaning?
Poet twill not forget about this:
Who lies to a “little” man
Laughing at his trouble,
Dont be indifferent, Poet, remember:
You can kill him, but there will born a new one,
Actions and talks will be cancelled.

Fortunately, Memory escorts us not only to the dark corners of
Human Soul, but also help sto find

II – GOOD
P.Chajkovsli – Souvenir de Florencs op.70

Memory is wonderful,
When gratitude is its result. Everyone has to be grateful for the Good met in one’s life.
As Mother Tereza form Kalcutta says:
Let the good to appear on your face
And in your eyes and in your smile.
Dont never let
One, who has visited you, to
Go away without becoming more happy.

Is this enough? Yes. Next comes only

III-BEAUTY
W.Gluck – Melody from opera “Orfeus and Eurydyka”
S.Rachmaninow – Wokaliza
A.Piazzola – Tango “Obvilion”

What else can be an engine of the beauty, besides LOVE?
It is difficult not to mention the words of the most besìautiful hymn of love:
 
And as poet says:

Love has explained evetything to me,
Love has permitted me evetything,
I am covered in scielence as a leaf
Free from wind
And now I do not regret about any day of my life

With best wishes,
Prof. Pawel Radzinski
