June

Istanbul Music Festival


Festival's Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, indisputably one of the greatest musicians alive whose works have become milestones in the music of the 20th century, Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki conducts Sinfonia Varsovia in this grandioso evening, which will also feature his own works (17 June). The soloist of the evening is violinist Julian Rachlin, whose distinctively rich sound, superb musicianship, and outstanding interpretation mesmerizes audiences throughout the world and inspires composers, including Penderecki.
