On March 28 we will celebrate Paweł Szymański’s 70th birthday. For this occasion we invite you to a special concert at the Witold Lutosławski Studio in Warsaw. A week later, on April 4, a retransmission of the concert will be broadcast on Radio Two, and its recording will soon be available on Ninateka. FINA is a co-producer of the event
This concert is a gesture from musicians and friends, stemming from the need to honor one of the most outstanding composers after Lutosławski, but also a signal of Radio Two’s return to the tradition of organizing extraordinary musical events in the Witold Lutosławski Concert Studio of Polish Radio.
