Concierto «Chopin & Friends» a la luz de las velas – Conciertos de piano en Gdańsk
Gdansk, St Catherine's Church
Sobre el espectáculo
Los conciertos de piano a la luz de las velas rinden homenaje al excepcional y enormemente popular compositor polaco Fryderyk Chopin. Reconocido mundialmente, el nombre de Chopin figura entre las leyendas de la historia de la música, y sus obras se encuentran entre las piezas para piano más exquisitas jamás creadas.
Junto con obras seleccionadas de Chopin, el programa del concierto incluye las mejores composiciones para piano de compositores célebres como Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Schumann y Rachmaninoff.
La singularidad de los conciertos radica principalmente en el escenario: la iglesia rectoral de los Padres Carmelitas de Santa Catalina. Esta vasta iglesia gótica del siglo XIII es famosa por su excepcional acústica. Escuchar música de piano a la luz de las velas en un lugar así promete un viaje emocional inolvidable, que dejará un recuerdo imborrable.
¡En Gdańsk, esta es la única oportunidad de asistir a un concierto de piano en una iglesia!

We enjoyed the concert last, hadn't heard many of the pieces but impressed by both pianists, really enjoyed them playing together, bravo

The pianist was very good, but we could maybe want to hear some more quiet and wellknown music — som of this was a bit «difficult».

The music was delightful and well played and we were lucky enough to have a very talented violinist in the second half. Too light to appreciate the candles as it is nearly mid summer. Take something warm to wear. Could not hear the introductions at all due to very quietly spoken pianist

Excellent pianist but too much 'modern' classical which was not to our taste. We had paid to hear a Chopin concert and we expected the majority of the programme to be just this. Very disappointing.

Extremely talented pianist, who played variety of works from Chopin to Schumann beautifully. St Catherine's a perfect setting for such a performance.

I had an absolutely wonderful evening at St. Catherine's candlelight performance. I don't know the performer's name (but he introduced himself having started playing piano at age 9, and he is now 21), he was SO TALENTED — wonderful execution of a program that highlighted Chopin but also a Liszt tribute to Chopin, a piece by an Italian, Scarlatti, and his closing piece by Polish composer (& PM) Pederweski. He introduced each piece in English and Polish, and the surroundings with candles and the church incense in the air, and the beautiful gothic architecture, just magnificent. They had space heaters which was a wonderful help in the chilled air, could not more enthusiastically recommend this experience. Thank you.

Het was prachtig, een mooie setting en de pianist was geweldig. Het was wel heel erg koud in de kerk, maar dat heeft niemand in de hand natuurlijk.

The music was great, but when the performer presented what will be the next songs and what should we now about them he spoke very softly.

Setting in the church was great. The pianist, although clearly nervous and performance‐inexperienced was an excellent musician. What was missing was any information the programme or pieces we were listening to. At the price paid a small printed page of the evenings set would have been appreciated and appropriate.
