It must have taken a lot of work for the unusual married duo of soprano and violist - Aleksandra Kubas-Kruk and Szymon Kruk - to find a suitable repertoire. It turns out, however, that in the 20th century, and then at the beginning of this century, composers created works for soprano and viola voices often enough for the artists to record the album Impressions (2022) together, without even having to rely on musical transcriptions. We will hear these works at the NFM on April 18, 2024 at 7 p.m.
The duo's concert at the National Forum of Music will open with the lullaby Gute Nacht by Paul Hindemith, which is the ending of the cantata titled Serenaden. The concert will close with Two Impressions - compositions dedicated to a married duet by the artist Leszek Wisłocki from Wrocław. They contain references to the folklore of Podhale, which has fascinated the creator since his youth.
