Karłowicz Fest | Festival Opening
Katarzyna Jackowska
Szczecin Philharmonic
For decades, the name of Mieczysław Karłowicz has been closely associated with Szczecin Philharmonic. Yet how much do we really know about the composer whose name the institution bears?
Marking the 150th anniversary of Karłowicz’s birth, the festival offers an opportunity to rediscover one of Poland’s most important composers and explore the ideas, passions and personal experiences that shaped his music.
Karłowicz Fest will bring together leading Polish orchestras for a series of concerts celebrating the composer’s remarkable symphonic poems. Each performance will reveal a different aspect of his musical world, inviting audiences to consider not only his artistic legacy but also what it means for Szczecin Philharmonic to carry his name.
The festival promises a journey through some of the finest works of Polish late-Romantic music, offering both devoted classical music enthusiasts and newcomers a fresh perspective on Karłowicz’s enduring significance.
