Cezary Skubiszewski is too well-known a composer to dwell on at length here. Skubiszewski was listed at move here, with this short bio: Polish-born Cezary Skubiszewski is one of Australia's leading film composers, with award-winning hits such as La Spagnola, Bootmenand Two Hands to his credit. He is the recipient of numerous awards from the AFI, APRA and the Australian Guild of Screen Composers. Described by Erin Free of Filmink as "one of the most prolific and consistently fascinating composers working in Australian film", Cezary Skubiszewski was born in Warsaw (Poland) and studied piano from the age of 6. He migrated to Australia in 1974, and through his life has both played in and composed for a number of rock, jazz and classical groups. In 1981 Cezary composed and performed the symphony Home at Last and in 1990 created Soundscape - a musical journey through time and emotion - together with designer Shaun Gurton. Cezary's first feature film score was for the film Lilian's Story, directed by fellow Pole Jerzy Domaradzki. He has since worked with many Australian directors, including Gregor Jordan (Two Hands), Richard Flanagan (The Sound of One Hand Clapping), Steve Jacobs (La Spagnola) and Brendan Maher (the acclaimed Network 10 / Granada mini-series After the Deluge). Cezary has composed music for many television films and programmers and also wrote music for many advertising campaigns.

There were some 18 tracks from a variety of films on the CD:
