I am a Polish long-time translator recently turned musician. Helped by my son on the guitar, I record symphonic rock/progressive metal harking back to the great bands of my childhood, such as Genesis, Yes, King Crimson and Pink Floyd. I like borrow melodies from classical music. In the lyrics I am trying to spread the vision of the world contained in two books by Stephen Pinker that I have translated into Polish, that is "Better Angels of Human Nature" and "Enlightenment Now".

Where You Should Go
Musical inspirations: Dear Prudence by The Beatles, Horizons by Fleetwood Mac, Monteverdi’s madrigals.
Text: An ode in praise of our patron, Steven Pinker - we celebrate him as a defender of reason, science and Enlightenment and a potential saviour of humanity.
Mood: Cheerful melotron flutes give way in the bridge to a fear-inspiring and haunting combination of harpsichord and synthesizer guitar, and the ending is lofty and monumental.more

Sibelian Eclipse: a Tribute to Anders Chydenius
Musical inspirations: Violin Concerto by Sibelius (the title is meant as an allusion to Siberian Kathru by Yes)
Text: In this work we compare two styles of writing, arguing and approaching the world, one exemplified by Karl Marx and the other by the little-known Swedish-Finnish pastor Max Chydenius, who nine years before Adam Smith authored the concept of the invisible hand, today completely misunderstood.
