Jakub Józef Orliński

Date & Time
Sun, Oct 5, 2025, 20:00
Breakdance and hip-hop fan Jakub Józef Orliński has become one of the most sought-after countertenors. His new program "#LetsBaRock" features Baroque arias by Purcell, Vivaldi & Co. arranged with a pop-song twist. Orliński collaborated with Aleksander Dębicz, covering Baroque arias similarly to pop and rock covers. The result blends baroque flair with electro sounds, creating a magical effect, reminiscent of Orliński's 2017 breakthrough with Vivaldi's "Vedrò con mio diletto."

Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Jakub Józef Orliński (Countertenor), Il Pomo d’Oro
Jakub Józef Orliński bridges the gap between the past and the present effortlessly: with a warm, radiant voice and rousing enthusiasm, the countertenor, who has already won the OPUS KLASSIK award three times, transports his audience to centuries long past. And yet he is not an artist who loses himself in the past – on the contrary. Orliński’s sparkling charm and his sympathetically sober view of things like success and career are as unpretentious as they are contemporary. In this ProArte concert, you can look forward to his excursion into the musically incredibly rich world of the Italian Baroque.

You’ve never heard baroque music like this before: in a concert titled #LetsBaRock, countertenor, model and breakdancer Jakub Józef Orliński presents arias by Henry Purcell, Claudio Monteverdi, Georg Friedrich Händel and Antonio Vivaldi in a new rock arrangement. Instead of harpsichord, lute and strings, he is accompanied by a band consisting of piano, bass guitar and drums. The settings are by composer and pianist Aleksander Dębicz, who, like the countertenor, is at home in many musical styles. But whatever the era of the instrumental accompanyment – in this programme, Jakub Józef Orliński can display the remarkable beauty of his voice.
