About
Festival
We are pleased to announce the International Festival of Rediscovered and
Forgotten Music – an exceptional musical event – the only one in the world.
Every year since 1994 our Festival has been held in Tarnow and 19 cities of
Poland. The idea of Festival is to present forgotten and freshly rediscovered
music by well known and forgotten composers, written hundreds years ago and
found at present in the castles, churches, museums, private houses. During
former 14 festival editions we had here music from main music libraries in
Berlin, Wien, Jagiellonian University’s Library in Cracow, Prague National
Library of Music, King’s Castle Library in Caserta, Brussels as well as in
Museum in Tarnow, Closter in Staniatki, Kiev -Lavra Orthodox Church, private
castles in Cornwall, England, Scotland…
Among all pieces written in the past for soloists, orchestras, chamber
ensembles, choir, and presented here, most of them were of great worth for
Polish and European Heritage. During all festival concerts we had here again
new-old pra-premieres, for instance : unknown music from Wawel Kings Castle in
Cracow of XIV - XVI c – written for Polish Kings specially recently
rediscovered early orthodox liturgy and songs from Kiev Lavra Orthodox Church,
piano music from 8 years old W.A. Mozart’s “sketchbook”, concerto for alpen
horn and orchestra by Leopold Mozart, oratorium by Austrian Emperor – Leopold
I, improvisations for organ from “Wedding sketchbook” by A. Bruckner, piano
sonatas and fugues by F. Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, piano music by Oginski
dynasty, unknown piano music by V. Bellini, G. Puccini, G.Verdi,
percussion-piano duo music written specially for Napoleone Bonaparte, songs by
K. Stohl found in Museum in Tarnow…. Special and unique concert was with
ancient Christian songs by anonymous composers, found in II and III c in Asia
Minor and combined with Slavonic liturgy from IX and X c.
International Festival of Rediscovered and Forgotten Music desires to extend
the concert experience by using Polish well known cultural-historical treasures
as concert venues. Thanks to the Festival, most of presented here music, has
been coming back to the world concert halls and supplements encyclopaedias as
well as music catalogues. Lots of presented during Festival pieces were
registered by Polish and International Radio and TV. Many of them are on CDs.
During 1996 – 2002 International Festival of Rediscovered and Forgotten Music
was under the auspices of President of Poland – Mr. A. Kwasniewski, who favoured
us personally in 2000 during opening ceremony.
At present, International Festival of Rediscovered and Forgotten Music is under
auspices of Mr Bogdan Zdrojewski - Minister of Culture and Polish National
Heritage.
