Marcin Szelest – conductor

Members of the House of Vasa were generous patrons of the arts, with music standing in particularly high favour among them. Under their rule, the Polish court became a melting pot of Polish culture and foreign influence. Italian musicians, whose significance was crucial for the development of baroque music, found an important place at the court of the Vasas, Polish music thus accepting forms and stylistics popular in other parts on Europe. Among the numerous musicians present (singers and instrumentalists), a special position belonged to Bartłomiej Pękiel, maestro di cappella of the Wawel cathedral. It was his oeuvre that proved most inspirational for the Polish Radio Choir, now located in Lusławice, to popularise works by the outstanding masters of the early 17th century with ties to the Vasa court.  

Alongside pieces by Bartłomiej Pękiel, we are also going to hear compositions by the Italian masters: Asprilio Pacelli, Annibale Orgas, Luzzascho Luzzaschi, and Girolamo Frescobaldi, which situate the works of the exceptional Polish composer in a broader context of the European musical heritage of early baroque. Furthermore, the programme of the concert includes works from the “Album Sapieżyńskie”, an early 17th-century collection of short pieces for the organ, the unique binding of which is an artifact of particular significance both in the history of music and of bookbinding. 

Concert duration: approximately 60 minutes
