WHAT: An Afternoon with Polish Music For Piano & Violin

WHERE: University Presbyterian Church, 2203 San Antonio Street, Austin, TX 78705 (Parking is free in the CO-OP garage across the street.)

TIME: Saturday, July 9th, 2016 at 4PM

COST: FREE ($15 suggested donation welcome, all proceeds go to the artists!)

Spend a lovely afternoon listening to the live music performed by two artists who are flying in from their native Poland to play for us: pianist, Michał Korzistka, and violinist, Marcin Hałat, both from the University of Silesia in Cieszyn, will present musical gems of the 19th and 20th century Polish music. If you attended previous Michał’s solo concerts in Austin or listened to his guest performance on KUT Eklektikos hosted by John Aielli, you know you want to come and enjoy the music he brings to Austin in July!

Join us for the reception with the artists in attendance after the concert.

Their program includes pieces by Henryk Wieniawski, Grażyna Bacewicz, Adam Andrzejowski, Artur Malawski, Ignacy Jan Paderewski, and of course Fryderyk Chopin.
