The concert at the Kraków Philharmonic will feature works inspired by the nature and folklore of northern Europe: Sibelius’s Finlandia, rooted in the beauty of native nature and mythology, Grieg’s Piano Concerto, carrying the rhythms of Norwegian regional dances, and the same composer's music to Ibsen's drama Peer Gynt, from folk tales. This will be the North in a nutshell! Aleksandra Świgut, an artist whose playing moves, surprises, and leaves a lasting impression, take s the solo piano part, while Łukasz Borowicz will conduct the Kraków Philharmonic Orchestra.
