AUKSO plays Glass

AUKSO – from Greek meaning growing, accelerating – became the motto for this ensemble, as for nearly 20 years, the Tychy Chamber Orchestra has been mastering their skills, undertaking bold musical challenges in an area of artistic experimentation.

Nowadays they are considered an unquestionable leader in chamber ensembles in Poland, one of the best orchestras in Europe. Their repertoire encompasses classics and contemporary music. An especially interesting area for AUKSO is musical borders and the merging of genres: jazz, alternative music, rock with classical sounds. This ensemble has successfully recorded film music and soundtracks to computer games. One such piece was even included in the popular series 'House of Cards'.

In front of Szczecin audiences, the Chamber Orchestra will perform compositions by American minimalist Philp Glass, also known as the godfather of this genre. There are special places in these pieces for melancholy, nostalgia and lyrical sounds. Glass creates a feeling of yearning, far from sentimental notes.
