Thursday, 4 April 2013 1 Comment
Hot on the heels of my recent posts about the re-imagining of Lutosławski’s music by Polish musicians, news has come through of a potentially more far-reaching project involving non-Polish musicians at the 2013 sacrum+profanum festival in Kraków.
On 22 September, the AUKSO orchestra, under Marek Moś, will play Lutosławski’s Musique funèbre and Preludes and Fugue. Their by-the-book performances will then be responded to by four composers known for their electronic work: Clark (Chris Clark, UK), Emika (UK, of Czech parentage), Mira Calix (UK) and Oneohtrix Point Never (Daniel Lopatin, USA). The event – ‘Polish Icons 2’ – starts at 18.00, at the ArcelorMittal Hala Ocynowni. Tickets (bilety) are 79zł (c. £20) until the end of May, thereafter 99zł (c. £25). The Polish announcement is available here (the English-language pages have not yet caught up with the Polish news release).
