Uma entrevista ao compositor e a Teresa Salgueiro a propósito de Silence, Night & Dreams:
Silence, Night & Dreams
Uma outra grande composição de Preisner é Requiem For My Friend, celebração em dois actos da morte (Requiem) e da vida (Life). Cada parte tem nove movimentos destinados a orquestra, coro e solistas igualmente. Inicialmente pensada para ser uma composição destinada a ser apresentada em diversas salas de espectáculos em todo o mundo numa produção conjunta de Preisner, Kieslowski e Piesiewicz, a morte prematura de Kieslowksi veio modificar tudo. Assim, a primeira parte de Requiem For My Friend transformou-se numa imperdível homenagem a Krzystof Kieslowski - Qui erat et qui est (acto sete).
"Once, we had a joint conception to create a concert telling a life story. The premiere was planned to take place on the Acropolis in Athens. It was intended to be a large event, a hybrid of a mystery play and an opera. Krzysztof Kieslowski would be the director, Krzysztof Piesiewicz was responsible for the script, and I was planning to compose the music. Once, we thought it might be the first of a series of musical performances, to be developed in various interesting places around the world in the next few years. But it was life that authored a different ending: Krzysztof Kieslowski died on 13th March 1996. The first part of Requiem for my friend is meant as a farewell to Krzysztof Kieslowski. I dedicate this music to him".
