Tomorrow Tuesday at 6.30 p.m. in the Church of Santo Tomé in the city of Toledo (Plaza del Conde, 4), the Instituto Polaco de Cultura presents Per Poloniae Cultura / Through Polish Culture, a concert by IberEnsemble, organised together with IberArtis S.L.
The programme will feature the works of Polish composers who, in their scores, focused on the immense beauty and harmony present in their lives, despite living mostly in the most difficult times and moments in Poland. Despite this, they were able to express through their music the hope for a better and peaceful future.
The concert will bring to the Spanish public the richness of Polish musical culture which, regardless of the circumstances in which it was composed, always amazed those who listened to it with its beauty.
Works by contemporary composers such as Romuald Twardowski, Tomasz Bonikowski, Witold Lutosławski, Stanisław Moryto and Tadeusz Paciorkiewicz, whose mastery has been recognised in the world of classical music, will be presented, but the music of the Renaissance by Wacław z Szamotul and the Baroque by Mikołaj Zieleński and J.S. Bach will also be performed.
The works will be performed by three internationally renowned musicians in one of Toledo’s most emblematic sites, the Santo Tomé Church, founded after the reconquest by King Alfonso VI of León, which houses one of El Greco’s most outstanding works, The Burial of the Count of Orgaz. Juan José Montero will be in front of the organ, Karolina Styczeń-Dmochowska on the cello, and soprano Agnieszka Grzywacz.
