Portret damy spełnionej

Jubileusze są potrzebne. Pragniemy obchodów, zobowiązujących do tłumnych sal, wzruszających słów i sentymentalnych momentów, do których tęskni się, zanim jeszcze zdążą przeminąć. Podobnie było w przypadku Gali Urodzinowej Joanny Wnuk-Nazarowej. Całe wydarzenie – podniosłe w charakterze i wspaniale zorganizowane. Najpierw pokaz filmu w reżyserii Violetty Roter-Kozery, przybliżający sylwetkę solenizantki, później spotkanie z jubilatką, wreszcie życzenia i kwiaty od znakomitych gości. Innymi słowy – świętowanie godne postaci tak znaczącej dla polskiej kultury. Odniosłam jednak wrażenie, że w ten...

Zafascynowani muzyką, oczarowani nieuchwytną ponadczasowością i transcendencją tej sztuki, zazwyczaj umyka nam to, co najbardziej prozaiczne i przyziemne. Ciężko bowiem dostrzec poziom komplikacji towarzyszący prawykonaniu opery, przygotowaniu koncertu oratoryjnego czy nawet skromnego wydarzenia z kwartetem smyczkowym – w plenerze. Owa proza życia urasta niemal do rangi „sztuki dla sztuki”, kiedy spiritus movens przedsięwzięcia jest Joanna Wnuk-Nazarowa. Znakomita kompozytorka...
