Romuald Twardowski’s considerable achievements in the field of choral music constitute a lasting contribution to the repository of the Polish culture. The music presented on this album is characterised by a great variety of forms and genres, technical mastery, and they are united by the personality of the creator faithful to the “unity in diversity” principle.

The Czestochowa Philharmonic Choir “Collegium Cantorum” conducted by Janusz Siadlak gathered in their repertoire works by Twardowski created over several decades. The present album is entirely devoted to this output, very well reflecting this genre diversity but also the ensemble’s remarkably enormous performance capability.
