Description: World premiere recording of the 2006 Magnificat, a 52-minute work which follows stylistically the Missa pro pace in its broad planes of musical action, gradual accumulation of texture and dynamics in each section, Gregorian monody and baroque polyphony both getting nods along with Romantic harmonic modulations. A dash of the primitivism associated with Pendercki's earlier works and some of the gritty ostinatio-repetition of Kilar's more dramatic film scores all make for a compelling experience which Kilar fans will not want to miss. Izabella Klosinska (soprano), Tomasz Krzysica (tenor), Piotr Nowacki (bass), Silesian Philharmonic Choir and Orchestra; Miroslaw Jacek Blaszczyk.
