The video that has been shared features an exceptional concert recording performed by Piotr Lachert and Justyna Philipp at Polish Radio Gdańsk. Piotr Lachert is an extremely renowned Polish composer, whose music is often characterized as contemporary and experimental. This certainly attracts the attention of listeners who are fascinated by innovative approaches to composition. Justyna Philipp, a talented pianist, performs Lachert's works with immense sensitivity and technical precision. Her strong and confident performance brings full expression and emotion to these pieces. Her interpretations are both precise and full of life, fully conveying the composer's intentions. It is also worth mentioning the film by Waldemar Filipkowski, who is responsible for recording the events on tape. His ability to capture not only the sounds but also the emotions and style of the performers is impeccable. Thanks to his work, we can enjoy the wonderful quality of sound and image. It is worth adding that the recordings were produced by Jacek Puchalski, who managed recordings at Polish Radio Gdańsk for many years. This monumental collection of 24 CDs includes recordings from 1998-2009 and provides an excellent overview of the compositional creativity of that period. It is a valuable source of information and inspiration for both lovers of contemporary music and music researchers. The Gdańsk Foundation of Contemporary Music Creators and Performers deserves recognition for its commitment to promoting contemporary music and archival recordings. Thanks to their efforts, we can not only discover new sounds and styles but also appreciate and nurture the heritage of Polish contemporary music. In summary, this video is an excellent opportunity to get acquainted with Piotr Lachert's talent as a composer, as well as with the great skills of Justyna Philipp as a pianist. This recording is a perfect expression of collaboration between artists, and I can recommend it to all classical music lovers who are interested in exploring new sounds and musical expressions.
