Olsztyn | Stage for Polish Music – ProMODERN Sextet

FWM

A concert of the proMODERN vocal sextet at the Warmian-Masurian Philharmonic on 6 February 2020 at 7:00 p.m. will be a unique opportunity to listen to rarely performed compositions by Polish artists. The next edition of the "Stage for Polish Music" project, implemented by the Institute of Music and Dance, will feature vocal works by 20th-century composers.

Three sonnets by Stanisław Moryto, dedicated to the composer's wife and created shortly before his death in 2018, were written especially for the proMODERN ensemble. Stanisław Moryto's teacher was Tadeusz Paciorkiewicz, whose cantata Orpheus in the woods, based on the poem by Krzysztof Kamil Baczyński, will be also performed by the sextet during the upcoming concert. Moreover, the programme will include two motets by Paciorkiewicz's contemporary, Roman Padlewski, Lord Tennyson Song  and 10 Polish Folk Songs on Soldier Themes by Witold Lutosławski, Song to the Virgin Mary by Andrzej Panufnik, and Three Songs by Tadeusz Baird.
