In the beautiful interior of the Fryderyk Concert Hall, lit only by candlelight, we will listen to Fryderyk Chopin's compositions performed by extraordinary artists - outstanding musicians of our time.
Alongside works by Fryderyk Chopin, the programme of the concerts will include music by other composers who inspired Fryderyk Chopin (e.g. Jan Sebastian Bach, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven), composers from the circle of European Romantic music (e.g. Ferenc Liszt, Józef Elsner, Stanisław Moniuszko), as well as later composers.
The concerts are two-part recitals lasting approximately 60 minutes, based on the idea of salon music gatherings popular in the 19th century. During the interval of the concert, you will be treated to a glass of sparkling wine.
