Frédéric Chopin is a composer who constantly fascinates. Despite the passing of time and a changing world, his music is still relevant. Janusz Wawrowski and Mischa Kozlowski reach for the works of Grieg, Paderewski, Noskowski and Sarasate to go back in time and show how Chopin, beloved by all of us, inspired in the 19th and 20th centuries.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
On this occasion, together with my students, we performed at a conference under the title: BreastFit – Women’s breasts, men’s business! The campaign, which includes the POWER OF COMMUNITY 2023 calendar, is meant to make us aware of the importance of taking care of not only our own health, but also of others. Let’s take care of our mothers, sisters, wives and colleagues. Let’s remind them how important preventive examinations are. It can save lives.
Buying the “Power of community” calendar and gifting it to a woman dear to you will be a symbol of concern for her health, and the proceeds a donation that each of us will add as support for those with advanced breast cancer. I encourage you to buy the calendar.
Warner Classics is about to publish brand new recording of chamber pieces by Ludomir Różycki and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
Those recordings are complementing the PHOENIX album, on which rediscovered Violin Concerto by Ludomir Różycki is paired with Tchaikovsky’s one. Różycki wrote his piece in 1944, in occupied Warsaw and, due to war events, the piece remained forgotten for many years after. –> for details click here
The idea of publishing the violin repertoire of the forgotten Polish composer juxtaposed with Tchaikovsky, whose pieces are one of the most famous and often played of all times was raised by Janusz himself:
“War brings damage on every aspect of life. There are no winners, just loses. Searching for lost pieces, rediscovering them, reconstructing and popularizing is a great passion of mine. Being able to bring the PHOENIX Violin Concerto by Różycki back to life proves that after dark always comes light. We must remember this, especially in difficult times”.
The new releases show the chamber repertoire of both composers:
Janusz Wawrowski – violin
Mischa Kozłowski – piano
Soon available on all major streaming platforms!
