A NOTE FROM THE COMPOSER:

If you ever wonder about the âEastern Europeanâ element in my music, itâs right here. I can hear it the most in the vocals, which have this characteristic Polish sound that I remember from my childhood.
The most important piece and the essence of Copernicusâ Star is "Aquarius". It has this unrestrained, free flowing quality that I had hoped for, and it also has the most colorful orchestration I have ever created.
I wanted this score to be like a beautiful, ornate piece of vintage jewelry. Gold, lustrous and magnificent, almost excessive. I wrote it in Los Angeles, remotely collaborating with the directors in Poland. Then, the scoring sessions with an orchestra and a choir took place in Warsaw. The music was very complex, so we spent countless hours in a huge, old-fashioned, communist-era studio, recording, re-recording and polishing all the details.


ABOUT THE FILM:

Copernicusâ Star, a feature-length animation produced by The Animated Films Studio in Bielsko-BiaÅa, Poland and directed by ZdzisÅaw KudÅa and Andrzej Orzechowski, is based on the life of Nicolaus Copernicus, a 16th century Polish astronomer whose theory, once and for all, moved the Earth from the center of the Universe to the third place in the Solar System.
