The evening of December 8, 2022, in the chamber hall of the National Forum of Music, will be filled with the sounds of works by Polish artists - Mirosław Gąsieniec and Mateusz Ryczek, who are active today, as well as Karol Rathaus and Tadeusz Szeligowski, whose careers developed most dynamically at the beginning of the last century. The concert will begin with a piece by Irène Wieniawska, the daughter of the great violinist and composer Henryk Wieniawski, who composes under the mysterious pseudonym ‘Poldowski’.
The culmination of the concert will be the premieres of Mirosław Gąsieniec's Dance Suite and Mateusz Ryczek's Songs of Aurelia - works by composers strongly associated with the Wrocław artistic community.
Musicians - LutosAir Quintet, pianist Piotr Sałajczyk and trumpeter Aleksander Kobus - will also reach for the works of Karol Rathaus. Eine kleine Serenade op. 23 for trumpet, French horn, clarinet, bassoon and piano was written 95 years ago: in 1927, when the composer was stationed in Berlin, where various artistic and scientific trends intertwined.
