Description
Summary:This article is devoted to my own Lenten choral and organ music. At first, I introduce my mo- tives for undertaking creative activity, which include, among others, the atmosphere of my family house (my father, Wojciech Łukaszewski, was a composer). My inspiration to take up choral music was a ten-year collaboration with the choir of the Academy of Catholic Theology (currently Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński University in Warsaw) under the management of the Reverend Kazimierz Szymonik. In the latter part of the article, I introduce my choral works, list the titles and then focus strictly on Passion and Paschal music. I present the circumstances in which those pieces were created, the details of their first performances and recordings, the texts they used and, furthermore, analyze them, paying attention to the most distinctive features of my composing technique and style.
