A Pole with Jewish roots, traveller and student, the versatile composer and publicist Szymon Laks developed his artistic maturity inthe fertile environment of the French capital between the world wars. Close to the Ecole de Paris, Laks' enthusiasm and openness forpopular music, neo-classicism and Polish song can also be heard in his works. His work was abruptly interrupted by the Second World War and his deportation to the Auschwitz concentration camp. In the song cycle created in 1947, which is full of tension on the frontiers between art song and folklore, Laks' most personal memories of his mother's singing - as well as of the Jewish culture in Poland, which was destroyed by National Socialism - echo through.
