The International Lutosławski Youth Orchestra is the only youth orchestra in Poland with an international character, which makes it unique. The team from Szczecin is connected with the National Forum of Music by its patron - Witold Lutosławski, whose 110th birth anniversary we are celebrating this year. Therefore, the programme of the Wrocław performance on the 24th of August, 2023 could not miss his music. Probably the most famous piece from the composer's oeuvre will be performed - Concerto for Orchestra.
The concert will be opened by a work of Krzysztof Penderecki, Szczecin Fanfare, which in 2014 sounded during the opening of the new building of the Mieczysław Karłowicz Philharmonic. The modern building also became the headquarters of ILYO. The fanfare was prepared by Penderecki especially for this occasion. Between the works of two Polish masters, the artists will present the music of Maurice Ravel and Richard Strauss.
