In December, the Kraków Philharmonic resounds with violin music on master level. In the beginning of the month, we listened to the laureates of the Wieniawski Competition, and there is still a lot ahead of us! Mid-December brings concerts of Inmo Yang from South Korea, winner of the prestigious International Jean Sibelius Violin Competition in Helsinki 2022.
The young artist will present Sibelius’s famous Violin Concerto, while the Kraków Philharmonic Orchestra tops up the evening’s repertoire with symphonic poem Finlandia by the same composer and Brahms’s Symphony No. 3.

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.
