The concerts will feature performances with the young Polish pianist and composer Aleksander D\u0119bicz, and the orchestra\u2019s principal conductor, Katarzyna Tomala-Jedynak.\nRead the \"Insider Interview with Richard Guerin of Philip Glass\u2019 Orange Mountain Music.\"\nAfter the success of the original Kilar | Glass concept at the Krakow Film Music Festival in Poland, the orchestra took the idea on tour to five Belgian cities under the baton of Dirk Bross\u00e9 \u2013 conductor, composer, and musical director of the Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia \u2013 as well as presenting the program at the inaugural concert of the prestigious Tenerife International Film Music Festival (Fimucit\u00e9). Without exception, this program that combines the music of Kilar and Glass received standing ovations wherever it was presented. \nIn a central idea of the program, Sinfonietta Cracovia plays a variety of works Kilar and Glass\u2019s - both concert music and film music - to highlight commonalities between the composers.  The portrait that emerges, that of a composer\u2019s voice as applied to both realms of concert as well as commercial music as well as commercial, reveals how pronounced the musical identity of each composer is. Sinfonietta Cracovia will give three performances across the northeast including (Le) Poisson Rouge in New York City on June 1, 2023, a concert presented by The Glass House in New Canaan Connecticut, as well as in a castle, Hammond Castle, in Gloucester Massachusetts. \nWojciech Kilar composed a great amount of film music and is known for many masterpieces of Polish cinema. He is perhaps best known abroad as the composer of a number of prominent big budget films such as Jane Campion\u2019s \u201cThe Portrait of a Lady\u201d and above all Francis Ford Coppola\u2019s enduring 1992 classic \u201cDracula.\u201d\nThe name of the Kilar 90 project comes from the 90th anniversary of Kilar\u2019s birth. Kilar was a composer who combined various worlds: concert and film music, classical concert works, avant-garde works, as well as a substantial body of sacred music. The idea emerge to combine Kilar\u2019s work - and his similar artistic path, with the work of Philip Glass who ultimately managed, like Kilar, to interact in multiple domains of musical creativity.   \nGlass, while known initially in the 1960s and 70s for his work in the avant-garde,  was nominated for three Academy Awards for \u201cNotes on a Scandal,\u201d \u201cThe Hours,\u201d and \u201cKundun.\u201d The concert will feature the performances of soloists Aleksander D\u0119bicz (piano) and his original composition, Sideways, a piece for piano and chamber orchestra.  Glass and Kilar both studied with the most famous teacher of the 20th Century, Nadia Boulanger.  They both scored Dracula films, and they both interacted in the realm of so-called high culture and popular culture.\nThis unprecedented event is the result of institutional support: the tour is co-organized by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute within the \"Programme of events accompanying the celebration of Wojciech Kilar's 90th birthday (2022) and the 10th anniversary of his death (2023),\" the Polish Cultural Institute New York, and PWM Edition. This part of Kilar 90 Tour has a special support of the City of Cracow. The promotion of Polish culture and the universal message of joy of art (both film and concert music) will be thus expressed in the musical dialogue: from Kilar to Glass. \nSinfonietta CracoviaPresents\nGLASS KILARKatarzyna Tomala-Jedynak, conductorAleksander D\u0119bicz, piano\nProgramPhilip Glass \u2013 Suite from The Hours (2002)Philip Glass \u2013 Suite from Dracula (1931)Wojciech Kilar \u2013 Orawa (1986)Wojciech Kilar \u2013 Certain Light from The Portrait of a Lady (1996)Wojciech Kilar \u2013 The Brides from Bram Stoker\u2019s Dracula (1992)Aleksander D\u0119bicz \u2013 Sideways\nAleksander D\u0119bicz is one of the most versatile pianists and composers. A native of Poland, he has toured both at home and abroad in numerous countries and has 4 albums and numerous compositions to his name.

His original works are innovative, wide ranging in style and unforgettable. In his work, he has been showing a passion for film art for many years and it is in this direction that he is currently pursuing.
