A small fishing village, the sound of the ocean, the smell of salt in the air and the music coming from the tavern – would you also like to be there on the threshold of your holiday? We are taken on a journey to Spain by the Kraków Philharmonic, which traditionally offers music from the Iberian Peninsula at the end of the season. This time we will hear La tabernera del puerto (1936) – Pablo Sorozábal’s most popular zarzuela. One of the last creators of this so strongly Spanish musical form skilfully combined dramatic flair, humour and expressive characters with brilliant music that lingers in the memory – such as the famous tenor romanza No puede ser.

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.
