Red Åódź – original title Czerwona Åódź – is a small cantata for choir and orchestra composed at the request of Åódź Singers Society (Åódzki ZwiÄ…zek Åšpiewaczy). It is a simple texture elaboration on proletariat folk aimed at amateur choirs.
The name of the composition refers to the name of a street in Åódź where in the mid XIX century a dyeing factory of Lange, later Geyer, was situated. Discharge from the factory was red and was flowing freely along the pavements. Hence the name of the street – Red Street. Sewage system was put in place in 1937 but the name remained.
Words of the song were likely to be written during a thatcher strike in 1932.
