this polish movie with 3 parts red white and blue has some beautiful music from Zbigniew Preisner. released in 93-94.


Preisner studied history and philosophy in Kraków. Never having received formal music lessons, he taught himself about music by listening and transcribing parts from records.

Preisner is best known for his work on Kieślowski’s movies. Some of these movies make reference to and contain music by a fictitious eighteenth-century Dutch composer, Van den Budenmayer. In actuality, all music credited to Budenmayer within the context of the films is composed by Preisner. Similarly, in Kieślowski’s Three Colors: Blue the “Song For The Unification of Europe”, written by Preisner, is supposed to be composed by one of the characters in the film.
