The Artur Rubinstein Philharmonic in Łódź invites you to the organ week, which will take place online on 15-19 April 2020.
It will be a chance to watch fragments of the concert "A quatre mains", which took place at the Łódź Philharmonic on 26 January this year. During this carnival concert, Krzysztof Urbaniak & Łukasz Mosur organ duo presented original compositions for two organs, including their own work Sound of the Future, as well as transcriptions of orchestral and piano works, among others Le mal du pays from the collection of dances and melodies A travers Pologne by Juliusz Zarębski, and Maurycy Moszkowski's paraphrase of the famous Farewell to the Fatherland polonaise by Michał Kleofas Ogiński.
In addition, the Łódź Philharmonic will share film materials from its archive presenting the unique organs intalled at the Philharmonic. Their uniqueness lies primarily in the fact that in one concert hall there are two independent instruments: baroque and romantic organs, which can be used both separately and together. The Łódź philharmonic concert hall is the only one of its kind in the world, it is also the only secular concert hall in Europe that has a baroque instrument – adapted to cooperate with early music ensembles.
The organ week will end on Sunday at 9.00 p.m. with the performance of the first part of Mozart's Symphony in G minor KV 550 by Krzysztof Urbaniak & Łukasz Mosur organ duo.
