Shalom everybody !!!

Today I wish to invite you to take a closer look at a DVD that was released at the end of April. You will be probably suprised to hear that this is actually the recording of the Polish pop-singer Justyna Steczkowska's performance at the three cultures festival Cracow 2001. The DVD entitled "Alkimja" just the same as Steczkowska's longplay is quite unusual because of its specific Jewish climate. The album itself was Justyna's tribute to her Jewish origin, therefore it is very personal for her and also very much different from her previous achievements. I admit that I was never particularly interested in Steczkowska's music, nevertheless "Alkimja" made me reconsider my opinion. The concert itself was really great not only because of the beautiful music but also because of wonderful acting and scenography. I must say I was astonished by the spectacle when I first saw it on TV, that is why I was very pleased to learn that finally this year there is going to be a DVD-edition of the concert. To sum up my invitation I give you a small teaser and I hope you will be willing to see the whole material.
