Kora, 67, has died, leader of the Maanam group and one of the The singer died at home in Blióów, surrounded by her relatives.
The late artist, in conversation with Onet, recalled Glaca, who recorded in February the song "Man" with Kora: – During my stay, everything announced a return to not completely healthy musical activities, but to work, I remembered Kora as a spiritually energetic person with an open mind and heart. t remained curious about life and interesting art. I remembered this cooperation.
– Kora was one of the few people to have shaped millions of Poles. I am one of them – I do what I do because there was someone like Kora, an artist so brave, rebellious, uncompromising, ahead of her time. About world class. With this energy, she nourished the legions of fans that I belonged to then and still belong to me. The fact that I could record a song with her and her house was a great experience. Unfortunately, we did not meet again after completing the project. She gave me a lot of energy and wisdom during this short visit. I waited for his return. Maybe not for long tours, but I was very curious about his new music. Unfortunately, another great person has passed away. This is a great loss for Polish culture – emphasized the singer
The writer Sylwia Chutnik was talking about the fact that Kora was a "total artist", not limited only to the role of the group singer of rock. – By the time I met her personally, I thought it was worth writing books. To know Kora. I listened and listened to it all the time; I do not associate with my elementary school, I listen to his songs all the time. I find something new at home, at different stages of my life, I find a song that could serve as a "soundtrack".
– She was a total artist: she did not look at the discipline she was working on. She was a poet, singer, but also "artist's own life", everything she did, she seemed to be an element of her expression. She appeared in the film, her music videos were also very cinematic, she painted, she blamed the world. Fortunately, she did it in pre-internet times, she did not have to look for clicks and likes, she did something different. Speaking of the late singer, the music journalist Piotr Metz focuses on three memoirs: "The first is a performance at the festival of Opole." It's rare in cultural history that everything changes in minutes. "- Maanam's performance at Opole in the early 1980s was such a moment.I am aware of this comparison – it's like performance from Presley on American television, which changed everything forever, showing something that was already bubbling up on the subway, in clubs, on public television on the country's most popular festival, broadcast at the best of times. Poland has seen a completely different way of stage performance, appearance, and how to play. "Bark with Maanam broke in one blow and turned everything back – he said Onet.
– The second remember is 1983. I went to Nuremberg, a friend in Krakow as a twin city.I ran straight to the record store, where I saw a wall with the covers of the new Mike Oldfield album. and the second – with the cover of the new West German album Maanamu "Night Patrol". Maanam then had an authentic fan club; without a geopolitical situation, we could have a team that would manage calmly in Europe, maybe even in the world. The third reminiscence is 1987 and the album "Kora i Pudelsi" – a tribute to the Krakow artist Piotr Marek, the Polish Frank Zappa, with whom Kora was a friend. To date, he has not been commemorated, and he did so in the eighties – he noted.
Kora was also mentioned by Milo Kurtis, co-founder of Maanam in 1975. "She was very close to people. a problem, I could always count on it, it's a beautiful, wonderful person who loves people, "he recalls. "People remember her only as a singer, she was also interested in philosophy, in art, she read a lot – she was incredibly intelligent" – he emphasized in a conversation with PAP
"I lived on the Greek island of Naxos, she loved there that she wrote the song" – said the artist. "Cicadas on the Cyclades" is the fifth single released in 1981. Music journalist Piotr Stelmach told PAP that after Korz, "one never knew that she had lost her life" because, as he she explained, she was a determined person their opinions, decisions, whose attitude "was a clear message, concrete, sometimes beautiful, sometimes warning." "I will remember Kora as a victorious, triumphant, daring, but delicate, sensitive and extraordinary person," he added.
