It will be a French-style feast! At the end of November, the Kraków Philharmonic Symphony Concert brings Bizet’s L’Arlesienne, full of warm colours, bursting with joy concert overture Roman Carnival by Berlioz and Ravel’s famed Bolero. The programme will be rounded off by Saint-Saëns’ Piano Concerto No. 5 in F major with Jonathan Fournel taking the solo part. The young French (oh, yes!) pianist was revealed with brilliance to the top international scene in the spring 2021 as he won the much-coveted International Queen Elisabeth competition and he has been conquering concert halls around the world ever since.

Besides their weekly symphony concerts, the Kraków Philharmonic also organises master recitals and educational concerts for children and young people.
The Karol Szymanowski Philharmonic Hall in Kraków was the first philharmonic to open in Poland after the Second World War. Besides the weekly symphony concerts, it organises master recitals and educational concerts for children and young people, while the summer meetings with music assume the form of chamber concerts of slightly lighter character. A hallmark of the Kraków Philharmonic repertoire is its programme of oratorios, which the Philharmonic can present thanks to its extensive and varied lineup: the orchestra, mixed choir, and boys choir. The Kraków Philharmonic has become recognised for its promotion of the works of Karol Szymanowski in Poland and abroad.
The Philharmonic Hall frequently hosts concerts by special guests, for example, at major festivals.
