Notatki wydania

Recorded At The Concert Hall Of The Polish Radio In Katowice In December 1993. Playing Time: 66:05 Cover Picture: The Virgin Mary weeping. 13th-century stained glass at Chewton Mendip, Somerset Text on the back cover: Mary, the mother of Christ, grieves over her dying son, wishing she could share his wounds and alleviate his pain, in a fifteenth-century Polish Lamentation. An ordinary mother mourns in a Polish folk-song. Her son went off to war and has not come back. She is certain he is dead but does not even have his body to lay to rest. These are the texts of the first and third movements of Górecki's Symphony No.3, Symphony of Sorrowful Songs. Between them, more poignant still perhaps, the second movement sets a short prayer to Mary as the Queen of Heaven which was found at Gestapo headquarters in the Polish town of Zakopane, scratched on the wall of a cell by a teenaged girl imprisoned there in 1944.
