Jarre as Mickiewicz

I've just read quite suprising article in Polish newspaper- "Gazeta Wyborcza" :D

There'a my translation, sorry for any mistakes, my English still isn't as good as I would like it to be :oops:

"Jarre as Mickiewicz

As the new direcor's of Adam Mickiewicz's Institiute- Bogdan Slonki's- initiative, there's a clip promoting Institute's activity made. The director of the video is Andrzej Wolski, famous Polish documentary film-maker working in France (he previously directed i.a. the film about Gombrowicz- Polish writer- Ronja's notice). The Mickiewicz's part is played by the musician and composer Jean-Michel Jarre. Fragment of the film is going to be presented on Monday's evening, during the "Victors 2006" ceremony, where Jarre is receiving his prize. It is not known yet, which Mickiewicz's poem performed by Jarre we are going to hear. "

At first I took it as a joke...but now I don't really know what to think about it...if it's truth...hurray! :D

For those who don't have idea who Adam Mickiewicz was: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickiewicz
He lived in France for quite a long time, so maybe that's the reason of choosing Jarre...and in the fact there is something which I would call "Jarre-boom" now in Poland, so it might also have some importance.

And if somebody interested in original article or just like Polish language :wink: : http://serwisy.gazeta.pl/wyborcza/1,68586,3297886.html

I had written to the author of the article and today I received the answer.
According to him Jarre is going to say "Litwo ojczyzno moja..." (opening lines of "Pan Tadeusz") in French. :)
