Lukaszewski Via Crucis (UK première
tour)
Music
by this young Polish composer has been heard around the globe and is championed
in the UK by Stephen Layton. The immediacy of its impact belies its radiant
simplicity, prompting comparison with the sacred music of John Tavener
and Arvo Pärt. Our Easter concerts with Polyphony and Stephen Layton
have become one of the highlights of the choral concert calender. 'Meet
the Composer' for a more in-depth look at Lukaszewski's new work.
‘What
more can one say of the singing other than that it is Polyphony? This
ensemble - surely one of the best small choirs now before the public -
invests everything it sings with insight, crisp ensemble and total warmth.’
