Concert of Wishes
Premiere: October 7, 2012
A short history of Polish popular music
Artistic assistance: Iwona Kempa, Jacek Bończyk
Arrangements, musical direction: Igor Nowicki
“Concert of Wishes” performed by Toruń actors is a classical concert. A set of songs was selected jointly by the artists. Our concert is a review of the most interesting, the most famous songs that became hits or have been deemed important events in Polish popular music. On the stage, we will see almost the entire team of the theater and will hear the songs in new arrangements and surprising, often humorous, interpretations. The program includes songs from the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s – from the repertoires of, among others, Kabaret Starszych Panów, Czerwone Gitary, Perfekt, Maanam, Wilki, Kult, Obywatel G.C., Bajm – and among them such memorable hits as: „Kwiaty we włosach”, „Rudy rydz”, „Jej portret”, „Jesteśmy na wczasach”, „Kocham Cię jak Irlandię”, „Byłam różą”, „Gdy nie ma dzieci”, „Moja i Twoja nadzieja”. It will be so lyrically, humorously and in rock style. The actors are accompanied by great Toruń musicians under the direction of Igor Nowicki.
And as befits the concert of wishes – we wish you a fantastic experience, nice memories and great fun!
