Uwagi o inspiracjach muzycznych dwu wierszy Wojciecha Wencla: "Srebrne i złote" oraz "Oda na dzień św. Cecylii"

Abstract

The sketch presents music inspirations and the meaning of several musical motives in the two of Wojciech Wencel’s pieces, which were analysed in details: Silver and Gold, Ode for St. Cecilia’s Day. Similar mottoes and a few allusions are shown in musical compositions which inspired the poet; those are Haendel’s Messiah and Purcel’s Ode fo r St. Cecilia's Day. Wencel doesn’t concentrate on the plot and the structure of these works, but he understands them as “celebrations” which make the holy order appear in the world.
