The multi awarded soundtrack composer Zbigniew Preisner, after the "Requiem for my Friend" dedicated to the memory of his friend Kieslowski, he started "Silence, Night and Dreams", a project that gave him the freedom to create without having to follow a specific screenplay. It is a work for soloists, choir and orchestra with leading vocalist the sublime Teresa Salgueiro from Madredeus. Preisner uses texts from The Book of Job and the Gospel of St. Matthew and the orchestration has elements of both classical and contemporary electronic music. The work is in nine movements, with the texts sung in English and in Latin. Just note the titles of the sections and let Preisner’s spiritual and atmospheric music wash over you. Full scans included.
