Experience Peace

  • Martyna Benedyka

Created for the Classix Festival

In light of recent events, which are happening very close to my place, I wanted to create a piece that will express the feelings of those in potential danger. Some people feel safer than others. Some manage to forget about the war. But we are all in a state of limbo. I decided to examine this state and look for a way out. This work, which includes an aria from Georg Friedrich Haendel's first oratorio, aims to trigger memory and bring the past times that give us the necessary strength to live and to act.
