HashtagLab 25 11 23

On the 25th of November, 2023 at 10.00 and 12.00 Hashtag Lab invites ĄsąBąble again! This time, the concert for babies 0-3 and slightly older children (aged 3-7) will be accompanied by Intibag sensory objects, flute, piano and percussion instruments.

"Sound Baby" is a sensory concert for families with children, during which we will experience the sensations of contact with Intibag objects and look for the answer to the question: can sound have weight?

Wrapped in layers of the sounds of Morton Feldman and George Crumb, we will look for space to relax and meet what sleeps inside us. The title of the concert refers to weighted blankets, which influence our parasympathetic system, reducing stress and calming down.

Warszawa | V „Eufonie": muzyczne wędrówki Lakatosa i AUKSO

Eufonie 22 11 23Patronat medialny nad Festiwalem sprawuje Polskie Centrum Informacji Muzycznej POLMIC.

W repertuarze koncertu 22 listopada o godz. 19.30 w Teatrze Palladium z udziałem skrzypka Roby'ego Lakatosa i orkiestry AUKSO pod dyrekcją Marka Mosia nie zabraknie polskiego akcentu, jakim jest utwór Witolda Lutosławskiego Nie oczekuję dziś nikogo. Artysta nazywany diabelskim skrzypkiem wystąpi w ramach V Międzynarodowego Festiwalu Muzyki Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej „Eufonie".

Roby Lakatos z łatwością łączy muzykę klasyczną, jazz oraz rodzimy, węgierski folklor. Jest muzykiem uniwersalnym, u którego genialna technika idzie w parze z kreatywnością w improwizacji.

W wykonaniu skrzypka, jego zespołu oraz orkiestry AUKSO pod dyrekcją Marka Mosia zabrzmią czardasze, hory, rókatánc, csűrdöngölő, jak również walc.
