Blazewicz-Sahay Manush (Spontaneous Man) (SP)-M/P - Product Information
In the work Sahay Manush written for the duo by Marcin Blazewicz the contradictions between the marimba and unmelodic instruments, between soft and harsh sounds, static and dynamics, are based on the philosophy of Yin and Yang. The idea of creative spontaneity comprised in the virtuosic and improvisatory passages is influenced by the poetry of the Bengali Bauls, who strived to attain the essence of matters by the free development of their improvised poems. "If you want to be happy, enjoy your life and be more alert in order to realize what is important and what is not. If you keep opting for what is essential, sooner or later you will become an essential man, adbar manush. In order to achieve that, one must be a spontaneous, unconstrained man, sahaj manush."
The composition consists of well defined components such as form, and elements which can be changed, such as used instruments.
