His Christmas song "Who knows?", Which carries out of = his team, echoed almost precisely at any radio station in Poland Photos. Peter Sk=F3rnicki / AGNot everyone knows that, in addition to = successes in the field of popular music, film and theater composer He is = also an award for the classical compositions. A week ago, Zielinski was = in Poznan in connection with the second National Forum of Composers, = organized by the Academy of Music. IJ Paderewski and the Poznan branch = of the Association of Polish Composers. At the symposium Zielinski = answered the question of whether being a composer of the profession or = vocation.=20 After yesterday's interview with Paul Lukaszewskim on Polish music = tastes, music in general and its future - another composer's voice = today.=20 An interview with Maciej Zielinski *=20 Is there a difference between your profession and vocation?=20 - - I spoke about this in my speech at the Composers Forum. Occupation can = be carried out without the appointment and the appointment does not need = to be professional. For me the ideal is to combine these two elements. I = believe that if a composer can be met.=20 You feel fulfilled?=20 - - No (laughs). I hope that's a lot more from me. What I do is my = passion. Composition is a way of life for me, it engages in its strength = and duration. On the other hand, is a profession, from which they have = had. In exercising the profession which is both my vocation, I feel in = some sense fulfilled, however, to comply fully with my performance and = lack of creative satisfaction, which is still before me ...=20 Music theater and contemporary music began you write at the age of 18 = years old, entertainment - at age 19, advertising - at age 20, a film - = 21 Everything you did before obtaining a diploma in composition. You = chose this direction with a view that will give you the music = entertainment?=20 - - No. I wanted to write different music. Ciagnelo me to classical music = as well as to entertain. That only so much good music entertainment = rather quickly gives the phrase - faster and easier satisfaction. Write = serious music, and from time to time select a desire to achieve this = rapid effect. As a creator I am a bit purposeless. I like when my music = causes resonance. In addition, the bywam lazy, so if I can write a small = piece, which will recognize it and I am delighted to do it. In the case = of classical music is often incorporated in the work of achieving a = similar effect is much greater.=20 To determine their aptitudes, inclinations and preferences of music is = in your one of the most important conditions for being a composer. In = your creativity is important, inter alia, music entertainment. The = presence in your home such as a Urszula Dudziak, Basia Trzetrzelewska = whether Wojciech Mlynarski preferences shaped the subsequent music?=20 - - Those people do not remember if I was too small. He worked with my = dad. It was a galaxy of musicians from the jazz and entertainment = climate of those years. For sure the atmosphere at home and music, which = is sluchalo there have been in me.=20 Sometimes you sing at the coffee "moment najmilsza morning?=20 - - No (laughs). Music to advertising coffee Jacobs wrote 15 years ago. = For me, Prehistory, but nice to me that people still remember this song. = It has a significant effect you properly every area, which you do. Is it = hard to reconcile with each other two completely different aesthetics - = music and entertainment?=20 - - In my case, that somehow this is going, my dwutorowoscia is due to = experiences from childhood. In the house coincides with the music, = entertainment, and a serious school. Both worlds have been natural for = me. Wondered once whether it would be worthwhile to choose one way - a = field in which I feel strong, and thanks to refer of course, perhaps, = greater success. However, not made any choices. I wanted to feel = creatively satisfied. I love to compose music and entertainment, and = serious. If I resigned from something, czulbym bad, and so remain in the = same line with each other.=20 Is it in an environment of serious music composers met with Mr. any = objection to his work?=20 - - It never occurs directly. When a composer writes music entertainment = in addition to serious, both in the environment to music, and = entertainment appears przymruzenie eye. Some believe that the easier = things I write to the commercial aspect, and others - that I write = things too heavy. Everyone thought that artistically not to end with me = everything is in order. A few years ago in each of these environments, I = was a little on the carpet. Most try to avoid informing each of the = parties about the other activity. And the more I performance in each of = the areas, the lower it is a "but" and the less importance to my work in = a different style.=20 Once said: "The most outstanding person supports only if they are = specifically people. It is, therefore, mainly from the social systems = and is not what happens to be offensive. The market is small and = everyone is fighting for his place. This is something between the jungle = and the mafia. " It was not too bold a statement?=20 - - It was eight years ago. Contacts are extremely important in the music = industry, and they often decide on this, which he has position and whose = works are performed. Then my speech related to the promotion of young = composers who do not have the opportunity to present their works. If = young people can not do this, following hole generation. If they are not = supported, they can not learn from the performances of his works - are = becoming worse composers, or even leave the profession. I did not want = to be a bad prophet, but so little happened. Now the situation of young = composers looks much better, although what has been lost, is not odrobi. = Source: Gazeta Wyborcza, Poznan (There is a second page on the web. Did not include it here.)
