AUKSO x JANUSZ WAWROWSKI: VIVALDI: THE FOUR SEASONS / RICHTER: VIVALDI RECOMPOSED
1 February, 7:00 PM, Tychy – Mediateka
Performers:
“No One Surpasses the Red Priest
We all enjoy listening to familiar hits now and then. Even violinist Janusz Wawrowski—renowned for uncovering the forgotten Violin Concerto by Ludomir Różycki and tirelessly performing new Eastern European music—and the AUKSO Orchestra, known for their unmatched versatility, are no exception. And is there a greater classic than Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons?
These four spectacular compositions, which lay dormant in archives for nearly two centuries, have since the 20th century been recorded over 1,000 times. One of those recordings, Nigel Kennedy’s 1986 rendition, sold an astonishing 3 million copies. The pieces have appeared in over 500 films and inspired countless remixes—including one by Bach himself. The most famous reimagining, by Max Richter, revealed Vivaldi as the forefather of cinematic minimalism.
Empires rise and fall, humanity dreams of colonizing Mars, and artificial intelligence begins to compose music. Yet no one has captured the beauty of human emotions and natural phenomena in sound better than the Red Priest.”
On November 12 at 6:00 PM, the concert “Music of the Future: Respighi, Paderewski, Mozart” will take place as part of the 30th Sądecki Music Festival, IUBILAEI CANTUS, featuring Janusz Wawrowski and Julia Wawrowska with the Sinfonia Carpathia Orchestra.

Janusz Wawrowski, the violin virtuoso, and Lithuanian composer Gediminas Gelgotas present their latest album, Consonance, which takes listeners on a unique journey through sounds that combine a subtle mood, nostalgia, and the emotions of three closely connected cultures: Lithuanian, Polish, and Ukrainian. The collaboration with Gediminas Gelgotas, soprano Bogumiła Dziel-Wawrowska, and the Lithuanian NICO Ensemble creates an extraordinary atmosphere full of reflection and warm tones. The delicate yet profound compositions of Mikołaj Górecki, Gediminas Gelgotas, and Valentin Silvestrov intertwine, crafting a captivating musical landscape filled with subtle emotions, harmony, and deep feelings. The album’s release will take place on October 25, in both digital and vinyl formats. The artist plays on the extraordinary Antonio Stradivarius violin from 1685!
