Abstract

The article discusses the religious creativity of Wojciech Łukaszewski. He composed three works for a large ensembles and five religious songs for solo voice and solo voice with piano or organ. These works have religious connotations. Confessioni were inspired by the Confessions of Saint Augustine. In De morte Boleslaui Carmina, the composer repeatedly quotes the Polish song Bogurodzica. In works on religious subjects, he used the texts of Roman Brandstaetter, Gallus Anonymus and Roger Degrelle and three Polish carols. The article is the first attempt to explore this topic. An important material helpful in the analysis of the composer’s compositions and spirituality were his letters to Maria Patrzyk – his bride.
