Łapiński collaborated with famous Polish performers including singer, lyricist and poet Jacek Kaczmarski, dubbed the bard of the Solidarity anti-communist opposition movement.

Łapiński died in a Warsaw hospital from lung cancer, his sister Bożena Białkowska told the PAP news agency.

In 2006 then-President Lech Kaczyński awarded Łapiński the Knight's Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta.
