CHOPIN & FRIENDS - PIANO CONCERTS AT CATHEDRAL OF ST. MARY MAGDALENE IN WROCŁAW
Piano concerts are dedicated to the outstanding and most popular Polish composer – Fryderyk Chopin, whose compositions will be mostly presented during the concert.
In addition, apart from Chopin's compositions, the concert will also feature the most interesting piano compositions by such composers as Bach, Beethoven, Liszt and Rachmaninow.
The uniqueness of our concerts is primarily the venue, namely the Cathedral of St. Mary Magdalene in Wrocław – a massive, gothic church from the 13th century, with excellent acoustics. The sound of the piano in such a space will provide the audience with incredible emotions.
This is the only occasion in Wrocław to admire the piano concert in the church!
