Maciej Frąckiewicz / Łukasz Kuropaczewski / Marek Bracha - NOSPR

The only concert in the Masterfully series given by Polish performers. The star of the evening will be Maciej Frąckiewicz, an exquisite accordionist, winner of Paszport Polityki and multiple international awards. An instrumentalist actively cooperating with composers and inspiring the creation of new pieces, he is a rarity on the Polish music scene. Maciej Frąckiewicz played a part in the writing and first performances of nearly 100 new compositions. The recital at NOSPR will include the first performance of another work dedicated to Frąckiewicz, “Quasi una Sonata” for guitar and accordion, which he will perform with an acclaimed guitarist, Łukasz Kuropaczewski. Moreover, the programme includes a range of accordion sonatas, from 19th-century ones, originally written for the concertina (a prototype of the bandoneon), to sophisticated contemporary works, exploring new technical possibilities offered by the accordion.
