Classical music with a Polish connection on 2nd November 2019

Tuesday 1 October

Classical music with a Polish connection is the order of the day on 2nd November, when the distinguished pianist Janusz Piotrowicz will give a recital of music by the 19th century Romantic composer, Chopin, and the Polish choir, Polonica, will sing.

Janusz Piotrowicz is a Nawrocki Prize Winner at the Warsaw Chopin International Piano Competition. He is giving this concert to raise funds both for the Cathedral and for the charity he founded, The World Trust.

Janusz is both a pianist and conductor. He has performed worldwide, receiving the highest critical acclaim. He has also conducted the Hallé, Royal Philharmonic and Royal Liverpool Philharmonic orchestras, the London Mozart Players, Royal Northern Sinfonia and the Orchestra of Opera North. He is the Founder and Artistic Director of Ripon International Festival, now in its 22nd year.

Polonica (pictured below) is a community choir made up of people from the Peterborough, Bourne, Deeping and Spalding area who are Polish, or have strong Polish connections. They specialise in performing Polish folk songs and also religious music in Latin, German and English.
