Music for the film "The Peasants"

Experience the heartbeats of Poland’s storied countryside in “Music for the film *The Peasants*”—a masterful concert celebrating the celebrated 2003 film adaptation of Władysław Reymont’s Nobel‑prize‑winning epic. Led by composer Łukasz “LUC” Rostkowski and the Rebel Babel Film Orchestra, this concert invites you on an unforgettable journey through the soundtrack’s fusion of traditional folk timbres and contemporary orchestration. Feel the sway of the accordion and violin, the earthy pull of the hurdy‑gurdy, the stirring depth of double bass and tuba (which even doubles as a bass synthesizer), and the soul‑touching clarinet, drums, and Płock fiddle. Interwoven with heartfelt vocal performances—delivered by voices such as Kayah, Julia Wieniawa, Ralph Kaminski, and Kwiat Jabłoni— the music unfolds in a dynamic blend of mazurkas, polkas, and rubato phrases, capturing the rhythms of rural life. Created with the support of the Laboratorium Pieśni, Sutari, Dagadana, and the Vyrij Choir, this concert offers fans a chance to immerse themselves in the film’s cinematic world and the rich traditions it celebrates.
