BETH GIBBONS singt HENRYK GÓRECKIS SINFONIE NR. 3

In 2016 Colin Stetson ventured to reinterpret Henry Górecki's Symphony No. 3, which was unusual because the US saxophonist was known to a wider public only through his collaboration with pop acts such as Arcade Fire. Two years earlier, Portishead's Beth Gibbons had already taken over the difficult vocal part in that famous "Symphony of Lamentations". The live recording of her performance at the Teatr Wielki Opera House in Warsaw is now being released for the first time.
