Concerts – Current Season
New Comma Baroque Concerts for the 2013-2014 Season:
Niech Żyje Polska: Long Live Poland! – Music of the Polish Baroque
The 17th through 18th centuries were filled with dramatic political and artistic turmoil in Poland. From the Dresden-influenced Chapel Royal in Warsaw to the rise of Poland’s own native masters, instrumental music began its ascension. By examining this unique and relatively unknown repertoire, New Comma Baroque will present diverse instrumental programs exploring early keyboard works of Podbielski, Elsner, the solo gamba works of Mente and Podbielski, and the early instrumental pioneers of Jarzębski and Mielczewski. Join New Comma Baroque in the celebration and exploration of Polish musical culture. Sample New Comma Baroque – Niech Żyje Polska Long Live Poland! – Music of the Polish Baroque and our duo lecture-program New Comma Baroque – Muzycznego piękna barokowej Polsce – The Musical Beauty of Baroque Poland.
