The Musica Moderna contemporary music festival will be held in Łódź between the 25th of April and 13th of May 2022. Works of more then 30, mainly young composers will be performed, many of which by the newly formed Zespół Wokalny Muzyki Najnowszej (Vocal Ensemble of New Music) conducted by Maciej Koczur. The partner of the event is the Polish Composers' Union. Admittance to all events is free.
The programme of the ‘Musical Evening’ (April 25) is dominated by works of artists from Łódź: Olga Hans, Jolanta Smolska, Marek Kunicki, Kosma Szust and Sławomir Kaczorowski, who celebrates the 40th anniversary of his artistic work.
The concert ‘Young composers, young performers’ (April 26) will present collective compositions inspired by the works of the avant-garde artist from Łódź, Antoni Starczewski, who belongs to the popular ‘Strzemiński circle’.
As part of the presentation of the Electronic Music Computer Studio (April 27), the audience will be able to hear new electroacoustic, electronic and audiovisual compositions for computers, tape, noise-boxes, cameras, light and live electronics. The event will be accompanied by a spatial installation From the corridor to a vision by Agnieszka Szynk and Marcin Barsz, whose sole purpose - as the authors say - will be ‘to evoke merriment’.
