On the 21st of April, 2023, the Union of Idealists of New Music invites you to the City Hall - the former synagogue in Buk. A one-day festival of contemporary music ‘New Music in the Former Synagogue’ will be held there at 7 p.m., culminating in a concert presenting world premieres. The date of the concert in the synagogue coincides with the 80th anniversary of the outbreak of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. Admission is free.

One of the premiere compositions is Magdalena Białecka's Piano Concerto. The third part of the Concerto is entitled Kaddish. The piece was composed with the festival's sponsors in mind: a family that leaves Buk after a hundred years of living in this city. The second of the compositions will be Suffolk: a Triptych by Magdalena Białecka to the poems of the Polish-Norwegian poet Ariel Rosé.

We will hear the experimental chamber orchestra Ensemble 622 conducted by Magdalena Cichoń, composed of students and graduates of music academies in Warsaw, Gdańsk and Bydgoszcz. Klara Kania and Jan Dzierżanowski, and the winner of international competitions - pianist Paweł Popko will be the Festival’s soloists.


A lecture is also planned at 18.45, meeting with musicians after the concert and a music programme for children at 15.00.

The Festival is under the patronage of the Jewish Community in Poznań. The event is co-financed by the City and Commune of Buk.
