on August, 16th 10am. in Krasnystaw and then during Mid-Europe Early Music Days in Kielce (4-11.09.2022) on harpsichord, fortepiano and organ!
We have only a piano reduction and just one movement of this lovely piece. I've thought that it could work quite well as a music for a woodwind instrument. Thus, two new versions: for flute & strings and recorder & strings. Moreover an extension for 2 flutes and strings is on the way. Enjoy on IMSLP!
If you are interested in Ukrainian music you can find my transcription of a nice Berezovsky sonata on imslp now. As well as an arrangement of the national anthem of Ukraine for strings. And to give you an idea of the music a sound sample...
These are perhaps the most beautiful keyboard Italian sonatas composed in the 2nd half of the 18th c. By the Ukrainian composer whose music I simply adore. And not only keyboard music ... In this difficult moment where the independence of Ukraine is at stake I dedicate this recording to my Ukrainian friends. With gratitude and love.
Each style of continuo playing is a separate world. And what's especially interesting for me is using bass parts from chamber music works as a base for partimento improvisation. This is a powerful tool which boosts our ability to play in a fanciful way. My lecture prepared for the online conference in Ljubljana is available on YouTube.
Die schöne Müllerin in Lublin (Trybunał Koronny). Next Sunday, July 4th, 6pm. I've been always dreaming of playing this wonderful cycle of songs. And I'm so happy to do it with Piotr Olech whom I know ever since ...
I'm very proud of this arrangement published by the edition of the Akademia Muzyczna Krzysztofa Pendereckiego. My intention was to enrich the repertoire of classical / early romantic Polish piano duo music. The dedicatee of my arrangement is Myroslav Korchynsky - great musician living in today's L'viv.

Ernst Köhler's music s rather unknown. The composer who served as organist of the St. Elisabeth's church in Breslau was, however, one of the leading figures of Breslau's musical life during the 1st half of the 19th c. His music embracing both Bach tradition and new romantic features seems at the first sight conventional but once you start to play it reveals its power. For this recording I've chosen the organ of the Church of Peace in Jawor - a reconstruction of the early romantic instrument by Lummert. I hope this recording will be an important contribution to our understanding of 19th c. music tradition in Breslau and Low Silesia.
