here is the link to part of an interview Gorecki gave about a burn victim that wrote to him.  Click on the link and scroll down to the red "listen" link under "Gorecki Reads a Letter".  there are also excerpts about Gorecki talking about his Third Symphony (part of movement 1 of which was used in the Takoma Park scene).
