| As part of the Park Lane Group’s young artist concert series Bartosz Glowacki, a Polish student at the Royal Academy of Music shared an evening program on January 8th in the Purcell Room at London’s South Bank Centre with the percussion duo Aurora, Delia Stevens and Le Yu. The program included Luciano Berio’s Sequenza XIII ‘Chanson’, a new work by Richard Causton, ‘Ricercar’ for solo accordion, ‘Prelude No13’ for solo accordion by Edward McGuire, and ‘Jeux d’anches’ by Magnus Lindberg. Composers, Richard Causton (recently appointed Professor of Music at Cambridge) and Magnus Lindberg (prominent Finnish composer) attended and enthusiastically congratulated Glowacki. Bartosz Glowacki obtained an excellent review from the music critic of the Guardian newspaper who wrote as follows: “….for me the coup de foudre was Bartosz Glowacki. By instinct, a solo accordion is not my top choice for a good evening out. Life deals its shocks however. The poetry and intensity of Glowacki’s playing proved compelling. Whether in Berio’s baroque-inspired Sequenza XIII (‘Chanson’) or in the sinewy, nervy energy of Magnus Lindberg’s ‘Jeux d’anches’, the young Pole created a poignant and distinctive sound world….”. High praise from the music critic of a major UK newspaper. |
