AROUND MOZART / CHAMBER CONCERT

23 March 2025, Sunday
Time 18:00
The Auditorium of the Center for Culture and Sport in Zielonka, Waleriana Łukasińskiego 1/3



Divertimento means entertainment or fun in Italian. This is also the nature of the early composition written in 1772 in Salzburg and marked with the number KV 138 that inaugurates an evening filled with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The concert will feature chamber arrangements of famous fragments from the operas Die Zauberflöte and Don Giovanni interpreted by excellent soloists and instrumentalists of the Polish Royal Opera. After all, Mozart’s signature arias and duets also function perfectly outside the context of the opera stage, and the genius of the Viennese master lies, among other things, in his ability to capture a variety of personalities and emotions. Listeners will certainly notice the many faces of the insidious seducer Don Giovanni, the evil intentions of Monostatos, or the prudence of Tamino and Pamina. The various shades of romantic infatuation will culminate in the lighthearted and joyful yet deeply moving “bird” duet of Papageno and Papagena. In the finale of the concert, we will hear the delightful Allegro from Eine kleine Nachtmusic, enchanting with its elegance and mastery.
