Overview

Jakub Józef Orliński has quickly emerged as one of the most vibrant performers on the international classical music scene, and his appearances at Wigmore Hall continue to be a hit. Returning with his regular pianist partner Michał Biel for his final residency date this season, the countertenor and sometime breakdancer presents a programme ranging from Austria through Britain and Germany to his home country, with works by three Polish composers.

Financed by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of the Republic of Poland as part of the multi-annual programme NIEPODŁEGLA 2017–2022
