NEW YEAR CONCERTS IN FRYDERYK CONCERT HALL - ROBERT SKIERA
Achievements
New Year is an extraordinary opportunity to spend this magical time with family and friends and with the exceptional music of Fryderyk Chopin.
In the beautiful interior of the Fryderyk Concert Hall, illuminated only by the glow of candles reflecting in crystal chandeliers, we will listen to the composition of Fryderyk Chopin, performed by extraordinary artists.
With a glass of champagne, you can admire the famous, unique Christmas tree Fryderyk, full of musical decorations, which invariably arouses the delight of our guests!
The concerts are two-part recitals lasting about 60 minutes, based on the idea of musical gatherings popular in the 19th century. At the intermission, you will be offered a glass of sparkling wine.
Please arrive 15 minutes before the concert.
