Warsaw Philharmonic

Written By Krzysztof Jablonski

Two weeks from now I will be performing with the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Maestro Patrick Fournillier. Returning to Warsaw after just half a year is especially pleasant as I still have every note we played together in August of 2015 in my memory (Chopin's E minor Concerto with Maestro Jacek Kaspszyk during "Chopin and His Europe" Festival). This time, Piano Concerto by Saint-Saëns in G minor No. 3 is on the program. One of my favorite Piano Concertos I was fascinated with since I was little. Pleasant to perform, pleasant to listen to, one of those virtuoso - non tragic - music compositions. There are less optimistic moments in first movement, but there is amazing drive and enlightening character in both 2nd and 3rd movements. Amazing finale, with breath taking passages... Looking forward to it!
