Composed for the final concert of the Chopin bicentenary celebrations in Warsaw in 2010, Powialo na mnie morze snÃ³w... (A sea of dreams did breathe on me...) is an extended song cycle comparable in scale to the Eighth Symphony [Naxos 8.570450]. The individual songs, settings of both Romantic and contemporary Polish poetry, are grouped into larger movements and chart a progression from an almost impressionistic lightness to monumentality, the expressive tenor of the music ranging widely - nostalgic for loss, but also tense and impassioned.
