Katarzyna Kraszewska / Chopin Concert

Concert of music by Fryderyk Chopin. Performers include professors of the Fryderyk Chopin Academy of Music and winners of national and international competitions. The programme of the concerts is varied and includes works to satisfy both seasoned music lovers and popular Chopin works known to all. The concerts are played on a piano with the so-called 'Verdi tuning' of 432 Hz, which was used in Chopin's times. This is the only place in Warsaw where you can listen to a recital of piano music on an instrument in this tuning.
The concerts take place in the Old Gallery of the Union of Polish Artists Photographers, in the left wing of the Royal Castle. It once housed the kitchen of the Castle, Baciarelli's flats and the first seat of the Academy of Fine Arts.
The intimate hall can accommodate around 60 people. The old gothic interiors are conducive to contemplative music. It is further enhanced by an exhibition of the best Polish photographers, which changes every month. The hall is praised in concert reviews posted on social media.
The concerts take place every day throughout the year and start at 6 p.m. Each concert lasts approximately one hour. During the interval of the concert, mead, cold-pressed apple juice or water is served. When the weather is good, guests can go out onto the garden terrace with a beautiful view of the Vistula. After the concert, listeners can purchase CDs of the artist performing on the day, receiving a dedication.

Katarzyna Kraszewska - born in Warsaw. She graduated from the Academy of Music in Łódź in Professor Tadeusz Chmielewski's piano class. She also completed her doctoral studies there. She is a laureate of many national and international competitions, as well as many special prizes, such as the Fryderyk Chopin Society prize for the best performance of a mazurka or the Dutch Music Society prize. In 2005 she took part in the International Chopin Competition in Warsaw, which resulted in the recording of a monographic Chopin album at the Białystok Philharmonic. The following year at the International Competition in Brest (France) in the Chopin category she was awarded "1-ere medaile". The pianist regularly gives concerts in many places in Poland connected with Frederic Chopin. On the occasion of the Chopin Year, she recorded a CD for the album "Chopin - the composer's moods in Tomek Sikora's photographs". Also on the occasion of the Chopin Year she has performed many times as a soloist at the Lodz Philharmonic in a multimedia concert of Chopin's music.
