Having left Poland in 1842, he lived in Germany, Italy, Belgium, the United States, and especially in France, in Paris, where he died in 1883. His work has been rediscovered by a wider audience thanks to the Polish modernist movement M\u0142oda Polska. \nA radiophonic, musical and literary artwork, based on his poems translated into French, was created by the Polish composer El\u017cbieta Sikora on the occasion of the year dedicated to the poet. Together with the scriptwriter Zbigniew Naliwajek, they made a selection of poems  on which this composition is based, having the ambition, as the latter says, \"to share with the listener the relevance and modernity of the Norwidian concepts as well as to resurrect the beauty of a few lines of his luminous poems.\"\nFind out more about Norwid on culture.pl\n \nListening to Norwid\u2019Ellipse \nTexts: Cyprian Kamil Norwid \/ Translated by Christophe Je\u017cewski \nScript : Zbigniew Naliwajek\nMusic and creation : El\u017cbieta Sikora\nActors : Maria Seweryn, Andrzej Seweryn, Jerzy Radziwi\u0142owicz, directed by Andrzej Seweryn\n \n Live\n28 August at 7.30 pm : Concert \u2018Electrobelges\u2019 \u0964 Event organized by l'ASBL Musiques&amp;Recherches @Ohin (adresse)\n On the radio\nMonday 27 September at 4 pm on Radio CAMPUS and during the month of November on Radio PANIK (date tbc).\n \n\"Let us imagine Norwid walking today in the streets of Paris. Is it really himself or is it his souvenir that walks among the passers-by? A bicycle, a scooter, a car pass by him, he hears the ambulance signal, the tramway bell stops him. He finds himself in a group of young people who are chatting and picks up the words of a rapper, the poet of our days. \nNorwid, this exile, looks and observes, hears and judges. He is homesick, he misses his country, but he treats his homeland and his fellow citizens with great severity and irony. He feels bad always and everywhere but when free is [his] thought, he lives with delight. The beauty of his poems amazes us, the wisdom and insight of his observations force us to think.\nThe selection of the poet's texts is the core of this radio work. The musical realization follows this structure, preceding it with an introduction and ending it with a coda. In the introduction, we go in search of Norwid, whose name is unknown to almost all passers-by; his words emerge just before the beginning of the first part; the coda recalls the fragments already used, like a mantra or a memento.\nText and music are intimately linked here: the sound scenography based on the sounds of accordion and double bass, often transformed, completed by the recordings taken in the streets of Paris, envelops the texts with which Norwid addresses us today. The sound of footsteps in a Parisian church evokes the world of the St. Casimir's Hospice in Paris, where Norwid spent the last years of his life.\"\n \nCommissioned by the Warsaw Autumn -  International Festival of Contemporary Music.\nProduction: the Association Musiques et Recherches, Radio Trojka, and SONORA.\n \nPartners: the Association of Polish Authors and Composers (ZAiKS), the Polish Institue in Paris, the Polish Institue in Brussels, the Groupe de recherches musicales, the Music National Forum of Warsaw, the Association ALCOME, and the festival Sluchowisk in Pozna\u0144.\nThe artistic agency SONORA MUSIC initiated this project.\nCredits\nText : Cyprian Kamil Norwid (Translated by Christophe Je\u017cewski)\n \nScript : Zbigniew Naliwajek\n \nMusic and creation : El\u017cbieta Sikora\n \nActors : Maria Seweryn, Andrzej Seweryn, Jerzy Radziwi\u0142owicz\n \nDirected by de Andrzej Seweryn\n \nMusicians :\n \nRafa\u0142 \u0141uc \u2013 accordeon\nTomasz Januchta \u2013 contrebasse\nJean Besan\u00e7on \u2013 vocal\nCredit photo : Portrait of Norwid (National Library &gt; www.polona.pl)\n "},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/en\/2021\/08\/04\/norwidellipse-radiophonic-artwork-by-elzbieta-sikora\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/07\/Vys4F8gg.jpeg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/07\/Vys4F8gg.jpeg","width":1920,"height":1080},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/en\/2021\/08\/04\/norwidellipse-radiophonic-artwork-by-elzbieta-sikora\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"NORWID\u2019ELLIPSE &#8211; radiophonic artwork by El\u017cbieta Sikora"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/#website","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/","name":"Instytut Polski w Brukseli","description":"Instytuty Polskie","potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"pl-PL"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/#\/schema\/person\/a9511bd38216ede5326c1c43526fa9d8","name":"debruchev","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/219e7982d83aec3f4ce66c1c3219fe98?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/219e7982d83aec3f4ce66c1c3219fe98?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"debruchev"},"url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/author\/debruchev\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/147"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7454"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7454\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8096,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7454\/revisions\/8096"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7410"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/brussels\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
