Work & Edition Details
Przygrywka i kolęda (Prelude and carol) comes from a period in which Wojciech Kilar clearly simplified his musical language, began to refer to tradition and drew inspiration from folk music. This was a major breakthrough in the composers output, who previously was considered a leading representative of the Polish musical avant-garde and had written such pieces as ''RIFF 62'' (1962), ''Générique'' (1963) and ''Diphthongos'' (1964). Both Przygrywka i kolęda and the earlier ''Upstairs-Downstairs'' (1971) foretold the birth of one of the composer's most famous works, the symphonic poem Krzesany (1974), considered a turning point in Wojciech Kilars work. As for Przygrywka i kolęda, the composer himself said that ''in this single-movement piece one may distinguish something reminiscent of three sections, separated by longer pauses: the introductory section (the prelude), the central one, a quasi-canonical development of the traditional Polish carol Nastał nam jest dzień wesoły and the final section - a type of coda.''
