Event
Polish Music at Polish Hall - Maciej Grzybowski - piano recital
His interpretations of Bach, Berg, Schönberg, Szymaski and Mykietyn show the touch of genius! There are certainly none today to equal his readings of Bach! (...) How refreshing and exciting it is to be in the presence of such great art of interpretation, akin to a genius!
(Bohdan Pociej).
The performance of Bergs youthful Sonata and Schönbergs Sechs kleine Klavierstücke could easily stand alongside the recordings of Gould or Pollini.
(Marcin Gmys).
