Programme

Andrzej Jagodzinski Trio invites music lovers to the courtyard of Archaeological Museum to witness Chopin's romantic profundity turn into jazz with a breathtaking and exhilarating transformation on his 200th birthday. Performing jazz adaptations of Chopin's etudes, mazurkas, Polonaises, waltzes, nocturnes and preludes with unmatched mastery, the ensemble receives standing ovation in every country they visit and every stage they appear. One of the leading members of the unique "Chopin stream" in Polish jazz, the Trio will enchant the music lovers by improvising on the composer's works, who himself is a master of improvisation, with boundless energy.

The concert will be realised in collaboration with the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in Istanbul and Chopin 2010.
