The Philharmonic Orchestra will perform works by Polish composers under the baton of Bartosz Staniszewski.

Bartosz Staniszewski (b.1995) is a graduate of the Academy of Music in Krakow, where he studied with prof. Rafał Jacek Delekta. He has participated in numerous conducting courses led by eminent conductors, including Jacek Kaspszyk and Vladimir Kiradjiev as well as the Beethoven Academy Orchestra.

The Symphony Orchestra of the Subcarpathian Philharmonic under Bartosz Staniszewski's direction will begin the concert with a magnificent Overture to Karol Kurpiński's lost opera Ruins of Babylon. It is one of Kurpiński's best orchestral works, inspired by the masterpieces of Viennese classics. Then, on the 250th anniversary of Beethoven's birth, the orchestra will present his Symphony No. 7 in A major, Op. 92. The evening will close with Chaconne – In memoriam Johannes Paul II from Krzysztof Penderecki's Polish Requiem.
