Pan Ton String Quartet in cooperation with the National Museum in Cracow and the Polish Viola Society invites to the 2nd Monographic Concert devoted to the chamber music of Jerzy Fitelberg written for string quartet. The concert will take place on the 19th of March 2022 at 5 p.m. in the Bishop Erazm Ciołek Palace – branch of the National Museum in Cracow in Kanonicza 17 street.
During the concert Pan Ton String Quartet will present three pieces for string quartet by Jerzy Fitelberg: Fantasia ‘The last moments of Till Eulenspiegel’ (1920), Quartet No. 4 (1936) and Quartet No. 5 (1945).
In the works of Jerzy Fitelberg (1903-1951) we can find a unique fusion of styles, trends and creative directions from various European and North American artistic circles seen in the first half of the 20th century. Fitelberg remains forgotten and underestimated despite the fact that his music was often performed at many important festivals and concerts before his death.
The Pan Ton String Quartet are: Karolina Szymbara, Fabio Salmeri (violin), Paweł Riess (viola), Jakub Gajownik (cello).
Admission to the concert is free. Ticket booking by e-mail (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) or by phone (+48 12 433 57 44).
The concert and preparation of sheet music are possible thanks to the scholarship of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage.
