He was both talentless and mentally retarded. I feel utterly revolted listening to his "music". His popularity is a sign of profound cultural rot.

Penderecki was the biggest chad in contemporary classical music
> In 1959, using different pseudonyms, he submitted three works for a national competition organized by the Polish Composers’ Union. He won First, Second and Third Prize
> One of his most acclaimed compositions, Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima, was so unconventional in its articulation and treatment of sound-pitch, he abandoned the traditional notation system and invented his own graphic notation
> He owns a manor with 300,000 square meter arboretum in the middle of which he's planted a huge labyrinth as a metaphor for writing larger pieces. Penderecki reveals: "In the olden times, these mazes had a tower next to them, with a guard that would guide the lost ones to the exit. I also want to raise a tower like that. I would love to sent the critics that wrote badly of me into this maze, but they would be the ones who would have to find their way out with no guide. As a punishment. A sort of purgatory."
