Aleksander Dębicz is famous for passionately blending various genres, feeling at home in diverse styles. A keen improviser, he shows off his artistic erudition and does not shy away from games with sounds. He is interested in film narratives, though classical references are not alien to him either. On Valentine Day, the pianist will present his latest works, inspired by rushes of emotions and building an intriguing mood of mysteriousness.
A graduate of the Fryderyk Chopin Univeristy of Music, he defines his own musical language as “cinematic classical.” He has developed it already on his seven original albums released by Warner Classics. He has five nominations for a Fryderyk under his belt – among others for the Invention and #LetsBaRock albums. The latter is the fruit of the pianist’s collaboration with countertenor Jakub Józef Orliński. Both artists blend Baroque music with modern sonorities. Together, they have performed at Concertgebouw Amsterdam or the Philharmonie in Berlin. Dębicz composes for varied lineups – from works for solo piano to orchestral pieces. He has written music for Warsaw’s Teatr Polski and Teatr Żydowski, Juliusz Słowacki Theatre in Kraków and Teatr Telewizji. His music for Anna Karenina radio play produced by Polish Radio has earned him a prize at the Dwa Teatry festival. He has performed with acclaimed orchestras – Sinfonia Varsovia and Sinfonietta Cracovia. He enjoys a reputation as an arranger and has made forays into entertainment – making himself well-known to the audiences of the Męskie Granie series.
Each year, Valentine Day joyful celebrations provide an opportune moment to attend a concert. Not only if you are in love. A Saturday night with Aleksander Dębicz’s music – a world-renowned pianist, composer and improviser – will be just as ravishing if you share it with our friends, family or just enjoy a date with yourself.
