The first part of the concert invites listeners into the musical world of Zygmunt Krauze. Spr\u00f3buj opiewa\u0107 okaleczony \u015bwiat (Try to Praise the Mutilated World) is a moving poem by Adam Zagajewski. It also serves as the title of Krauze\u2019s new work, which will receive its world premiere at this concert. The composer follows Zagajewski\u2019s poem, with the text \u2013 sung by the solo soprano \u2013 playing a central role. <\/p>\n

Piano Concerto No. 2 (1996) was inspired by sacred places that the composer visited and that left a profound impression on him: Delphi in Greece (the principal sanctuary of Apollo), Teotihuacan in Mexico (a sacred city of the Aztecs), Gyeongju in Korea (the cradle of Korean Buddhism), and Jerusalem. Although the work does not use elements of the traditional music of these cultures, each movement reflects the composer\u2019s artistic impressions from these visits. The virtuosic piano part will be performed by the composer himself. <\/p>\n

The evening will conclude with Mahler\u2019s Symphony No. 4 (1900), notable for requiring fewer performers than many of his other works and often regarded as one of his more accessible symphonies. But is it really? Perhaps the idyllic finale \u2013 featuring a solo soprano singing a childlike vision of heavenly delights \u2013 juxtaposed with the danse macabre motif from the second movement creates a sense of grotesque irony, where death appears as a constant element of life, and the apparent \u2018accessibility\u2019 of the work\u2019s musical language conceals a deeper, more challenging meaning. <\/p>\n
