Simplicity and directness of expression, color
versatility and some extent of repetitivism are
attractive features describing Beata's music. Her
language of sound is also very descriptive,
imaginative, free, facile, and accessible to a diverse
audience. Beata's mission is to open "mental
space" with music: to let humans imagine, open
their minds and let them be directed by their own
imagination. Beata Golec stresses: "My intention is
not to make my audience be bound by what I
envision but to let them imagine anything; to
stimulate brain activity in the listener which
promotes a strong psychological and physical
experience".
She adds: “Color versatility is a crucial component
of my musical language: various registers
represent different color features; every harmony
creates a different color, and it is important for the
performers to seek out and express this
uniqueness. Voicing, articulation, and pedaling all
work together to enhance the vivid color effects.”
