Der polnische Dirigent begeistert bei seinem Gastkonzert mit den Münchner Philharmonikern mit einem Programm mit Werken von Penerecki, Mozart und Strawinsky.

“If you enjoy it... we are doing something horribly wrong”... ominous words to launch the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra's season finale at the Concertgebouw. 

Qui de mieux pour défendre un programme Penderecki/Dvořák/Stravinsky que Krzysztof Urbański, chef d'orchestre polonais, et Josef Špaček, violoniste tchèque ? Les deux trentenaires promettent une bouffée de fraîcheur.

Penderecki as composer/conductor with the LPO in a fascinating exploration of his own work, as well as some relatively rarely played Shostakovich. 

In an exciting programme of Prokofiev, Penderecki and Lutoslawski, two musicians debuted with the Rotterdam Philharmonic. Both impressed greatly.

Two strange bedfellows – Penderecki and Bruckner – brought together in the acoustically awkward, if architecturally spectacular surrounding of St Pauls Cathedral by Daniel Harding and the LSO as part of the City of London Festival.

It's been a bumper week of contemporary music at the Barbican, with Nico Muhly and the Britten Sinfonia, Bang on a Can, and Krzysztof Penderecki and Jonny Greenwood all taking the stage. The diversity of talents and styles on display can only be encouraging, and last night's offering was a fitting climax to a fascinating week.
