2Nd Stanisław Moniuszko International Competition of Polish Music
2nd Stanisław Moniuszko International Competition of Polish Music Konkurs należy do organizacji Alink-Argerich Foundation program 2 11–18 WRZEŚNIA 2021 II Międzynarodowy Konkurs Muzyki Polskiej im. Stanisława Moniuszki 11–18 września 2021 roku II Międzynarodowy Konkurs Muzyki Polskiej im. Stanisława Moniuszki 11–18 września 2021 roku Misja i cele Konkursu Celem Międzynarodowego Konkursu Muzyki Polskiej im. Stanisła- wa Moniuszki jest popularyzacja polskiej muzyki na świecie oraz utrwalenie w świadomości odbiorców znaczenia twórczości zarówno Stanisława Moniuszki, jak i wielu wybitnych polskich kompozytorów. Konkurs promuje dorobek muzyki polskiej XIX i XX wieku, zwłaszcza tej, która została zapomniana lub jest mniej popularna w praktyce koncertowej. Ma się przyczynić do tego, by szeroka publiczność poznała na nowo odkrywane utwory, a niesłusznie zaniedbana spuścizna doczekała się należytego opracowania i nowych edycji. Równie ważnym celem konkursu jest promowanie utalentowanych muzyków, którzy zdecydują się włączyć do swojego repertuaru mniej znane dzieła polskich kompozytorów. Organizacja konkursu to tak- że promocja Polski jako miejsca, gdzie odbywają się wydarzenia artystyczne o międzynarodowym zasięgu. Podstawowe założenia Konkurs odbywa się co dwa lata i może być przeznaczony dla róż- nych składów wykonawczych. Druga edycja konkursu odbędzie się w dwóch kategoriach – fortepian i zespoły kameralne. W kon- kursie mogą uczestniczyć muzycy-instrumentaliści zgłaszający się indywidualnie oraz jako zespoły kameralne (od duetów po składy dwunastoosobowe). W konkursie nie ma ograniczeń ze względu na wiek i obywatelstwo uczestników. II MIĘDZYNARODOWY KONKURS MUZYKI POLSKIEJ 5 Uczestnicy będą prezentować utwory 56 polskich kompozytorów, tworzących głównie w XIX i XX wieku. Przesłuchania konkursowe odbędą się w Filharmonii Podkarpackiej im. Artura Malawskiego w Rzeszowie od 11 do 18 września 2021 roku. -

Competition of Polish Music in Rzeszów the Stanisław Moniuszko International Competition of Polish Music in Rzeszów 20 – 27 September 2019
WWW.KONKURSMUZYKIPOLSKIEJ.PL THE STANISŁAW MONIUSZKO INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION OF POLISH MUSIC IN RZESZÓW THE STANISŁAW MONIUSZKO INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION OF POLISH MUSIC IN RZESZÓW 20 – 27 SEPTEMBER 2019 The Stanisław Moniuszko International Competition of Polish Music in Rzeszów is a new cultural initiative whose purpose is to promote Polish music around the world and make the listeners realise the quality and significance of the musical legacy of Stanisław Moniuszko and many other distinguished Polish composers from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. MISSION AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COMPETITION The Stanisław Moniuszko International Competition of Polish Music (Międzynarodowy Konkurs Muzyki Polskiej im. Stanisława Moniuszki) in Rzeszów has been initiated in order to promote that part of the great legacy of nineteenth and twentieth century Polish music which has been forgotten or, for a variety of reasons, has been less popular in concert practice. Its other objective is to present rediscovered works to the general public and provide this unjustly neglected legacy with appropriate analyses and new editions. The Competition also endeavours to promote talented musicians who are willing to include lesser-known works written by Polish composers in their concert programmes. The final aim of the Competition is to disseminate information about Polish artistic events addressed to the international recipients. BASIC PRINCIPLES The Stanisław Moniuszko International Competition of Polish Music in Rzeszów will be organised on a biennial basis and will be intended for a variety of different sets of performers. The first edition of the Competition will be divided into two distinct categories: one for piano and the other for chamber ensembles. -

2011 2012 ADAM MICKIEWICZ INSTITUTE | REPORT | SEASON 2011/2012 It was an excellent season for the growth of the Polska brand as well as for the development of the Adam Mickiewicz Institute’s reputation among our global partners. Paweł Potoroczyn, director of the Adam Mickiewicz Institute The 2011/2012 season will be remembered as a period of great challenges and spectacular outcomes. With whole-hearted accountability, we can say today that through the success of the International Cultural Programme of the Polish EU Presidency we have gained a level of experience that prepares us to meet any challenge head on. This experience is already paying dividends, as evidenced by projects like Polska Arts Edinburgh 2012, Polska Music, the Asia Project and the latest concert tour of the I, CULTURE Orchestra. The International Programme of the Polish Presidency surpassed even our boldest expectations – 20 million spectators in 10 world capitals, more than 7,500 write-ups in the most influential media and hundreds of valuable new contacts. At the Adam Mickiewicz Institute, we do not speak about the success of the Presidency; we speak about its effects, thanks to which Poland now has a face and our national brand is ever more robust and ever more reflective of the most desirable traits. Equally important to us is the fact that, due to the geographic reach of the Presidency, we gained valuable and practical experience in the Far East, which we plan to capitalise on in upcoming seasons. Though the Presidency is now behind us, two of its pillar projects will continue to shine with a new lease on life and, thus, a new energy: the I, CULTURE Orchestra and the Karol Szymanowski project. -
Twardowski, Bembinow, and Łukaszewski
Polish Mystery and Minimalism: Twardowski, Bembinow, and Łukaszewski By Philip Copeland, conductor and teacher The term ‘Holy Minimalism’ evolved in the late 1990s to describe the work of John Tavener of England, Arvo Pärt of Estonia, and Henryk Górecki of Poland. It was a style that went against the trend of complexity and towards a mood of contemplation. Forward motion was replaced with stasis; intellectualism was discarded in favor of spirituality. Each of the three Holy Minimalists were heavily influenced by techniques common in the medieval and Renaissance periods of choral music and frequently set their music to liturgical texts. The influence of ‘Holy Minimalism’ spread to many composers throughout the world, including three contemporary Polish composers who are the subject of this article: Romuald Twardowski (b. 1930), Miłosz Bembinow (b. 1978), and Pawel Łukaszewski (b.1968). Romuald Twardowski Composer Romuald Twardowski is a Professor of music at the Fryderyk Chopin University, one of the oldest and largest schools of music in Poland. His musical training included extensive studies at the conservatories in Vilnius and Warsaw as well as a year with Nadia Boulanger. Twardowski describes his approach to composition: I did appreciate the role and significance of tradition, finding in it inspiration for my own music. Assuming that extremes do meet, I looked to the medieval times, to the Gregorian chant to find pieces that, when combined with the achievements of the 20th Century of composition technique (aleatorism, cluster), would result in the desired synthesis of New and Old. This synthesis of chant and modern techniques is clearly seen in Twardowski’s Regina Coeli (1996). -

His early fondness for music was likely nurtured within his own very musical family where he grew up in the tradition of the music salon. Roman’s maternal aunt, Stefania Wilska, was a talented pianist of high musical sensibility. His first music teachers were the established Polish musicians Antoni Sygietyński and Władysław Żeleński.
