Part of "Passio Domini Nostri Jesu Christi" entitled "Jezu, ocal nas!"
13.06.2010r. Warszawa, Kościół Najświętszego Zbawiciela

Passio Domini Nostri Jesu Christi shows Jesus Christ's Passion that features with the innovative artistic qualities which indicate both the way of contents and music applied to express drama of the truth and love being the reference point in understanding the beauty of humanity.

As far as the contents are considered, Passio Domini Nostri Jesu Christi consists of eighteen parts exposing twelve last hours of Jesus Christ's life on the earth what is covered in Libretto. What is worth emphasizing is that the Libretto, written in Latin, Polish and Hebrewsh, bases on four Gospels, Saint Peter's First Letter, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Hosea Books. The noticeable fact appearing in this Composer's piece of music refers to some aspects such as his own completion text "Jezu,ocal nas!" ("Jesus save us") and Holy Mary's role exposed in a remarkable way in the Salvation. The words "Jesus save us" repeated four times in the introduction followed by monumental harmony of melody and contrastive dynamic orchestra performance and soprano vocal elicit threatening feelings about the human future and become the apocalyptic prophesy.

Passio Domini Nostri Jesu Christi has been written for: four vocals covering soprano, alto, tenor, bass; child choir whose performance of such phrases as Qui passus est pro nobis, Jesu Christe, miserere nobis and Sanguis et aqua seems distinguished and unforgettable; four vocal mixed choir (SATB); instruments: trombone, duduk -- the Ormian instrument made of apricot tree which can made the listener experience metaphysical meeting with Jesus Christ's events from that times; piano; and symphonic orchestra.
