FAREWELL TO SUMMER With Chopin

concert

 

 

 

 concert Our „FAREWELL TO SUMMER WITH CHOPIN” concert is an initiative of the Polish National Alliance. The largest Polish-American organization is not only celebrating the two hundred year anniversary of Chopin’s birth with this event, it is also boldly supporting talented local musicians of Polish descent living in the United States.

 

 The concert will be divided into four parts. The first portion begins with two young musical prodigies- 17 year old Marcelina Suchocka as well as 11 year old Daniel Szefer. The second part which kicks off the main portion of the concert will showcase Michael Pecak, the laureate of the esteemed Chopin Piano Competition in New York City. The concert will shift gears in its third phase as Alizma takes the stage. These three classically trained violinists, sisters, no less, will debut their inventive pop interpretations based on the maestro’s emotionally wrought work. The concert will climax with Arek Religa, the critically acclaimed guitarist and award winning musical virtuoso whose band will be playing rock arrangements of some of Chopin’s most popular pieces. Every single composition by Arek and his outfit will be specially arranged for this performance!
