Among the artists featured there will be performers of international renown and prize-winners in multiple piano competitions: Kevin Kenner, Eugene Indjič, Alberto Nosè, or Philippe Giusiano. Poland will be represented by Magdalena Lisak, Elżbieta Karaś-Krasztel (joined by the Prima Vista Quartet) and Agnieszka Schulz-Brzyska.  

The opening concert was a chance to listen to two young music talents, natives of Lublin: 12-year-old cellist Sebastian Kozub, a top ranking participant in close to 20 Polish and international competitions, and 15-year-old award-winning pianist Tomasz Ritter. 

The concerts held as part of the Caper Lublinensis Cross-Cultural Festival in association with the Henryk Wieniawski Philharmonic in Lublin. 

The recitals are hosted by the Festival’s director Teresa Księska-Falger, whose foreword to the Chopin states:

“Welcome everybody to the Lublin Old Town in the jubilee Chopin Year. Specially dedicated to those fascinated with the Żelazowa Wola genius’s work, we are bringing you evenings with his music…”.
