- 2.Marcin Konik. Essay to Camerata Silesia's recording of Requiem. Dux 2011. "Andrzej Siewiński to zapomniany dziś polski kompozytor z przełomu XVII i XVIII stulecia. O jego życiu wiemy jedynie tyle, że zmarł przed 1726 rokiem (na rękopisie Requiem sporządzonym w 1726 roku, obok nazwiska kompozytora widnieje notka Requiescat in pace) i był w jakiś sposób związany z zakonem jezuitów, choć niekoniecznie jako członek tego zgromadzenia."
