Songs That Are Hard to Say “Ciao” to. A meeting with Bartek Chaciński
following the screening of BELLA CIAO, dir. Giulia Giapponesi
partner: Polityka weekly
"Bella ciao", or " Goodbye, beautiful", is not the only example of a song that crossed geographical boundaries and broke through different cultural barriers. We sing their songs, and they sing ours, often reading them very differently, without knowing anything about each other's versions. Bartek Chaciński will share some other surprising stories of tunes we don't say “goodbye” to, but rather just “until next time”.
Guest:
Bartek Chaciński – editor of the culture section of “Polityka” weekly, music journalist, and member of the Council for the Polish Language. He collaborates with the Polish Radio and runs the music blog Polifonia. He is the author of the series “Słowniki najmłodszej polszczyzny”.
