In celebration of that euphoric moment, a hundred years later on November 11, 2018, the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of the Republic of Poland together with PWM Editions and the Polish Cultural Institute New York presents 100 for 100: Musical Decades of Freedom.\u201d This music program is an unparalleled undertaking, presenting a hundred works written by more than eighty eminent Polish composers from 1918 to the present, representing all genres and styles, including Karol Szymanowski, Grazyna Bacewicz, Wojciech Kilar, Witold Lutoslawski, Henryk Mikolaj G\u00f3recki, Krzysztof Penderecki, and a further selection of composers representing the younger generation. This project has attracted eminent musicians from New York, Chicago, Paris, Vienna, L\u2019viv, Tokyo, Melbourne, London, Copenhagen, Frankfurt and Milan, in a company of acclaimed Polish singers, instrumentalists and conductors, the best Polish orchestras and choirs, as well as eleven of the most active music institutions of our country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The New York City Chapter of 100 for 100 will feature a remarkable afternoon performance by the Oratorio Society of New York at Carnegie Hall, playing renowned Polish masterpieces by Henryk G\u00f3recki and Karol Szymanowski, as well as by Ralph Vaughan Williams.

Rather than rely on the traditional Latin text of the Stabat Mater, Szymanowski based his piece on a modern Polish version by the writer and philosopher J\u00f3zef Jankowski. Szymanowski\u2019s Stabat Mater, Op. 53 (Composed in 1925-26), combines authentic folk materials from the Tatra Mountains, echoes of old church songs, and post-Romantic orchestration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Henryk Mikolaj G\u00f3recki<\/strong>&nbsp;became a leading figure of the Polish avant-garde in classic music, bringing together a genuine interest in Polish \u201croots\u201d culture and folk traditions with a minimalist focus in his Euntes Ibant et Flebant, Op. 32 (Composed in 1972).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Oratorio Society of New York (OSNY)<\/strong>&nbsp;is one of the city&#8217;s oldest cultural organizations and since its foundation in 1873 has been an essential part of New York City&#8217;s cultural fabric.
