A new work for two organs and orchestra - Wojciech Laskowski's Meditations will be performed for the first time on the 29th of October, 2023 at 7:00 p.m. in the Cathedral Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Sosnowiec. The composition, commissioned by the Maxime Association, will be premiered by organists Daniel Strządała and Jakub Plewa and the Maxime orchestra conducted by Andrzej Mandryka. Admission free.
The organ in the Sosnowiec Cathedral is unique: some of the organ pipes are located in the altar, and it is possible to play two parts of the cathedral instrument separately. Thanks to the concert and Laskowski's new composition, we will learn about the topophonic possibilities of the Cathedral of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Sosnowiec: the piece was intended to be performed in this place.
The all-encompassing sound of the organ and orchestra will be enriched by the recitation of Polish poetry.
