The introduction to the celebration of the 90th anniversary of birth of Henryk Mikołaj Górecki - a great composer and patron of the Silesian Philharmonic - will be a chamber concert in the place of his birth. It will take place on the 3rd of December at 6.00 p.m. at the "Zameczek" Cultural Center in Czernica. This will be a unique prelude to the events scheduled for the 9th of December - this time within the walls of the Silesian Philharmonic building.

During the concert in Czernica, baritone Jakub Burgieł will perform, accompanied by the String Quintet of the Silesian Chamber Orchestra. The artists will present songs the first of which will be Three Songs, an expression of Górecki's mourning for his mother - who died when the composer was only 2 years old. The rest of the concert will be an opportunity to listen to the string quartets Już się zmierzcha and Quasi una fantasia.
