Polish composer Henryk Mikolaj Górecki was born in 1933 in Silesia. The land's shared cultures included Czech, German, and Polish and the music he absorbed was similarly diverse. Thus, his compositions start from a variety of perspectives and go in a vast array of directions. His music can seem very old or extremely new.
