The latest publication from the Fryderyk Chopin Institute?a photo book by Filip Dowjat?is a documentation of deeply emotional moments captured behind the scenes of the Chopin Competition at the National Philharmonic in 2021. The album consists of sections filled with black-and-white frames, most of which have never been published before, along with detailed descriptions.
It is an extraordinary visual journey into the moments when we are with the artists just before they step onto the stage and immediately after they leave it. We experience their stress, concentration, joy, and everything that accompanies the titular "inhale" before what is likely the most important performance of their lives.
"For three weeks, I observed the pianists, full of admiration and empathy, documenting what they go through at this decisive point in their careers. Some stayed in their dressing rooms until the very last moment and then ran straight out onto the steps leading to the stage. Others, even after stepping into the hallway, would close their eyes, as if wishing to be invisible. Some had their lucky charms?cufflinks or pendants?that they touched until the last moment before the performance, rubbing them with their fingers, hoping that the talisman would share its power. When they stood in the shadows behind the open door, in the darkness just by the stairs leading to the stage, I thought about their journey to this moment?years of practice, sacrifices, the decision to participate in the Competition, passing the preliminary rounds?and that now was the moment of trial, the inhale in silence before the music begins."価格(税込み) \25,080
