Concert organised in cooperation with the Embassy of the Republic of Poland and the Polish Institute in Vilnius

Did you know that the music of one of Fryderyk Chopin’s most important students had been lying in the Lviv Library archives for almost 130 years, awaiting its time?
Karol Mikuli was a pianist, composer and one of the most important successors of Chopin’s musical tradition. A man who preserved his teacher’s legacy, despite paradoxically being forgotten himself.

Pianist Weronika Chodakowska became the first performer in the world to release two albums showcasing the world premieres of Karol Mikuli’s piano works. In her interpretations, this music comes alive in a complete palette of the colours of Romanticism – in the form of subtle nocturnes, poetic miniatures and with improvisational flair. In this way, this secret of Romanticism comes into its own in today’s concert halls.

Three musical worlds will come together here: Fryderyk Chopin – the source of this inspiration, Karol Mikuli – a long-hidden story of Romanticism, and Weronika Chodakowska – the contemporary voice continuing this musical line.

This is a concert about how music can survive through the centuries. And about one beautiful truth – that sometimes the greatest discoveries are to be found where we least expect them.
