Oginski's Polonaise / Farewell to My Homeland (cover) - VIBES Week 12
Sorry, but the volume of the audio is very low.
I can't improve much.
You will most likely have to use your headphones.
Sorry.
"Farewell to My Homeland", aka Oginski's Polonaise is considered as one of the most (if not the most) famous and popular composition of Polish classical music.
It's extremely beautiful and catchy.
Polonaise is a Polish national dance.
The composition was written by Michal Oginski in 1794.
He was not just a musician, but also a politician, and he took part in the Kosciuszko Uprising, which failed.
So, he had to move out of Rzeczpospolita Polska to Italy, hence the name - "Farewell to My Homeland".
I played it the way I feel it. Note, that I didn't play the whole composition, just a piece of it.
The first time I heard it in my childhood, when I listened to a beautiful music box.
It always reminds me of times when there was no internet, smartphones, computers.
No much tech, just me, musical instruments, books, old furniture, a village, my grandma and grandpa.
If I'm not mistaken, my grandpa was the one who asked me to learn and play this composition.
It was considered as a national hymn for Belarus.
