SEVEN GATES OF JERUSALEM – LUBLIN
Over 200 artists gathered on the stage situated in the Centre for the Meeting of Cultures in Lublin will perform Seven Gates of Jerusalem — the monumental work of Krzysztof Penderecki. The piece, relatively rarely performed due to its gigantic executive apparatus, will be conducted on 9 February by the Maestro Penderecki himself.
„Seven Gates of Jerusalem” is a monumental composition based on the Old Testament texts — as it’s written for an ensemble of 120 instrumentalists, 90 choir singers, 5 soloists and reciter its performances are of a unique musical spectacle. The piece will be performed by the Sinfonietta Cracovia and the Krakow Philharmonic Choir alongside a number of excellent singers (Hossa, Sikora, Lubańska, Zdunikowski, Nowacki). The musicians will be joined by an outstanding Polish actor Sławomir Holland, who will perform as a reciter.
