About project
The 7th edition of International Lutosławski Youth Orchestra is coming!
The beginnings of the one and only project go back to 2013 when 100 birth anniversary of Witold Lutoslawski was celebrated. Since then each year Szczecin Philharmonic invites young musicians from all over Europe to know and practice Lutroslawski's pieces under the eye of renowned and talented tutors. The workshops finish with a concert ILYO orchestra performs on a Philharmonic gold stage.
The programme of 2019 ILYO edition is as follows: Variations on a Theme of Paganini of the project's patron – Witold Lutosławski and Dmitri Shostakovich's Symphony No. 7 in C major, Op. 60, “Leningrad”.
The Artistic Director and the Chief Conductor of the Szczecin Philharmonic – Rune Bergmann will conduct ILYO orchestra for the second time. The pianist Jan Wachowicz will perform as soloist.
