Summer recitals will take place in the Royal Łazienki until 24 September. Audiences will enjoy recitals by 41 finest pianists from Poland, Lithuania, Japan, Ukraine, United Kingdom, Italy and the United States. They won prizes in numerous competitions, including the International Chopin Piano Competition and are known for their great artistic achievements.
During the 58th Season of Chopin Concerts we will enjoy performances of the Japanese pianist Takashi Yamamoto, winner of the 4th prize in the 15th International Chopin Piano Competition as well as Kevin Kenner from the United States, winner of many prizes, including the second place prizes in the 12th International Chopin Piano Competition and the "Chopin in Memoriam" International Piano Competition in Varna.
The concerts, which are organized by the Royal Łazienki in cooperation with Stołeczna Estrada cultural institution and the Fryderyk Chopin Society, are extremely popular, both among tourists and residents of Warsaw. 80,000 listeners attend them every year, and the pianists consider giving these performances an honour.
The recitals by the Monument to Chopin were first organised in 1959, soon after the monument to the remarkable Polish composer was reconstructed. Ever since, the concerts have taken place every year, becoming an important part of Warsaw’s cultural calendar.
