In February 2009, George Matlock visited Iwo Zaluski in south Wales to record an 8-part audio history over the course of one weekend.
The Oginski Musical Dynasty was the result. Four episodes in English and four more in Polish recount the story of Prince Michal Kleofas Ogniski, reputed to be the composer of the Polish National Anthem, a mazurka. The Prince’s life had parallels with James Bond 007 and his descendants have in all but one generation remained musical composers.
This is a fascinating history exclusively recorded for Radio ORLA fm. The narrator is Iwo Zaluski.
