One of the leading Polish string quartets – the Camerata Quartet – will celebrate its 35th anniversary on 15 November 2019 at 7 p.m. at the Józef Elsner Opole Philharmonic.
Since its founding in 1984, the Camerata Quartet has won acclaim and recognition among international audiences and critics. The ensemble has performed in renowned concert halls in Europe, America and Asia, has taken part in many international festivals, including the "Warsaw Autumn", and has won a number of international music competitions. The Camerata Quartet has produced 28 records with such companies as DUX, Koch International, Ricercar and Thorofon. In 1991 the Quartet received the Stanisław Wyspiański Award for its achievements, and in March 2009 the Bronze Medal for Merit to Culture – Gloria Artis, both awarded by the Minister of Culture. In 2003 the Camerata Quartet founded the Polish Society of Chamber Music.
The programme of the anniversary concert will include String Quartet No. 5 in C minor, Op. 40 by Roman Statkowski and String Quartet No. 1 'From my life' by Bedřich Smetana.
