The album contains recordings of two compositions by Ignacy Jan Paderewski, which the pianists gladly played – Concerto in a minor and Fantasia Polska. They were created in the youthful period of the composer’s work, but they are characterized by the maturity of the composer’s workshop, the richness of the melody and the full swing of the instrumentation. Both in the fantasy and in the concert, the spirit of Polish music is present – in the construction of motifs, harmonica and feisty rhythms of Mazur and Krakowiak. Pompous orchestral fragments intertwine with lyrical ones, especially noteworthy are the beautiful piano solos accompanied by violin and cello solo in 2. parts of the concert. Both compositions have a clear virtuoso feature, but it remains in the background in terms of musical content. Young performers perfectly feel the character of Paderewski’s music, in their interpretation it is full of passion, pride, nostalgia, but also wit, expressing the unchanging qualities of the Polish soul for centuries.
