A Clay Vase

Sun, Mar 16, 2025, 11:00
Warsaw Philharmonic Choir, Bartosz Michałowski (Conductor), Bartosz Michałowski (Chorus Director), Trio Legend, Agnieszka Zahaczewska-Książek (Piano), Krzysztof Katana (Violin), Monika Krasicka-Gajownik (Cello), Agata Kawełczyk-Starosta (Presenter)
Among FeNek’s clutter, there’s an old clay vase. Just an ordinary vase, slightly dusty, a family heirloom... but don’t let that fool you! It’s not ordinary at all. Whenever music is played in the Concert Hall, wavy patterns always appear on it. A long line flashes when violinists draw their bows, tiny dots appear when a pianist’s fingers make a tinkling sound, or a little mouse flits by as a choir sings about it. The patterns and shapes change as quickly as the colourful sounds in the music. If you’re curious to find out what other secrets the clay vase holds, come to the concert at the Philharmonic, and don’t forget to bring a sheet of paper and a colourful marker. Bring to the concert… a sheet of paper and a colourful marker

A Musical Bunch

Sun, May 11, 2025, 11:00
Vocal ensemble NotaBene, Andrzej Borzym (Art Director), Halina Szkodzińska (Piano), Agata Kawełczyk-Starosta (Presenter)
FeNek is occasionally visited by a musical gang. So what is it? Well, a gang is a group of people who like and respect each other and are harmonious, not only at concerts. Every meeting brings new musical adventures: together they figure out how to give each other a tune, tap out a rhythm or catch a harmony, while asking each other strange questions. ‘Do tigers eat irises?’ ‘Which is better to have: feathers or quills?’ ‘Who’s the mysterious pumpkin eater?’ As you may have guessed, this is quite a crazy bunch, but they’re also sensitive and attentive to lyrical, romantic sounds... played, for example, on the piano. If you’d like to join the musical gang, come to the concert at the Philharmonic, and don’t forget to bring along... a hand-made drum. Bring to the concert… a hand-made drum

Attention! All music lovers are cordially invited to a great display of virtuosity! A trumpet in one corner, percussion in another, and a piano between them. The viola, often underestimated, will try to reconcile them. Each instrument will showcase its unique capabilities. What do you think – will they perform better solo, or is it worth joining forces and playing as an ensemble? Younger and older listeners will be told about the history and construction of these instruments. We’ll also consider why they sound so dignified, while not shying away from numerous musical embellishments.

Kołysz się i tocz! Do you know such a dance? Its funny name sounds like an instruction, and the whole world knows it – it’s rock and roll. This lively dance was born in North America. During our concert, we’ll talk about the energetic music and about the great friendship and passion that unites two friends. They danced rock and roll from an early age, devoting all their free time to practising. Each tournament brought them closer to realising their dream of making their favourite dance their main occupation and the purpose of their life. Are you curious how this story ended?

Bang on a Can All-Stars / Trio Mediaeval

Mon, Feb 17, 2025, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Vicky Chow (Piano), Vicky Chow (Melodica), David Cossin (Drums), David Cossin (Percussion), Arlen Hlusko (Cello), Mark Stewart (Electric Guitar), Mark Stewart (Banjo), Mark Stewart (Mountain dulcimer), Mark Stewart (Jaw harp), Mark Stewart (Harmonica), Ken Thomson (Clarinet), Ken Thomson (Harmonica), Kebra-Seyoun Charles (Double bass), Linn Andrea Fuglseth (Soprano), Anna Maria Friman (Soprano), Jorunn Lovise Husan (Alto)
Even for the state of the art, there are legends – such as the Bang on a Can All-Stars, who are always in search of very up-to-date, exciting music, regardless of genre categories. Steve Reich, Philip Glass, Meredith Monk and Ornette Coleman are just a few of the artists who have already collaborated with the New York collective. For their Elbphilharmonie debut, the musicians have chosen a work by founding member and Pulitzer prizewinner Julia Wolfe, which traces the myth surrounding the American folk hero John Henry as an oratorio between minimal music and country. There are hundreds of versions of this story, passed down by word of mouth and already cast in music many times whether by Johnny Cash, Van Morrison or Bruce Springsteen: at the end of the 19th century, a worker is supposed to have competed against a new kind of steam-driven hammer in railway construction with his muscle strength and won – to pay with his life as a result. Julia Wolfe has composed a meta myth with »Steel Hammer«: »The work is inspired by my love of legends and the music of the Appalachian Mountains. I fragmented the many different and somewhat contradictory versions of the ballad and wove it into a completely new format. The music often circles around individual words or phrases to tell the ultimate story and its different paths.« The Appalachian dulcimer (a kind of zither) joins the usual line-up of Bang on a Can with clarinet, a lot of percussion, guitars, piano, cello and double bass and provides for the American country sound. Trio Mediæval, a top-class a-cappella ensemble from Norway, completes the overall sound with its clear soprano and alto voices, which Julia Wolfe particularly appreciates for their great wealth of experience in the vocal tradition of their homeland.
