Krzysztof Penderecki. Conductor and composer, photograph by Bo Lutoslawski.
Krzysztof Penderecki was born in Poland in 1933 and he died in 2020. He was given piano lessons as a boy but was tempted to play violin and soon his desire to become a virtuoso dominated his life. His work was used in many films such as The Shining Children of Men and Shutter Island.
