Dear children, dear parents!
We are handing over to you a music album with old cradlesongs.
Lulajki (cradlesongs) will encourage you to sing and dance together and to lull children.
The release of this music album was inspired by spectators (children and their parents) that attended our Lulajka performance.
Jacek Hałas created music stories for each lullaby taking us on a voyage to different places and worlds.
Let your dreams be full of roosters, red bulls and birds on sticks!

The Lulajka series of events
The Lulajka performance began a series of events inspired by old Polish lullabies.
The "Lullabies, mormorandos, cradlesongs" workshop was created for parents and the youngest children. During the workshop parents and children sing and make music together.
The workshop was followed by a music album with lullabies arranged by Jacek Hałas titled "Cradlesongs - The Atofri Theatre and Jacek Hałas".
The release of the album encouraged us to start giving concerts with lullabies and counting-out rhymes composed by Jacek Hałas.
The concert "Cradlesongs and counting-out rhymes - the Atofri Theatre and Jacek Hałas" is the last of the Lulajka series of events.
