Robert Mirzyński:
”While working on the adaptation of ‘The Crown of Snow and Blood’ one of many questions I answered was: what kind of music will be appropriate? When I had a certain vision of the desired effect, I had to choose a composer. I have worked with different people who compose professionally. I knew their portfolios, but in this case I needed something different, something new. Thanks to Ela Cherezińska I learned about Tadeusz Gauer’s portfolio. I listened to his pieces and invited him to work with me. His music sounds very much like film music, even Hollywood film music. I asked Tadeusz to, while composing, identify with the characters created by Elżbieta Cherezińska. In this way the motifs of Przemysł, Zaremba and Mechtylda emerged. He prepared everything in one key and created such rhythms that made it possible to combine them, loop them, and smoothly transition from one to another. He created music that not only illustrated the passages from the audiobook, but above all conveyed emotions! I am very glad that I met Tadeusz. He has great potential! He is a very talented young composer whom we will hear about more than once.”
