JAZZFORMANCE/ Wirpsza

Concert

Centrum Kongresowe ICE Kraków

A fusion of poetry and jazz – a project based on the work of Witold Wirpsza. Jazz musicians Marcin Oleś, Bartłomiej Brat Oleś and Piotr Orzechowski, with actor Radosław Krzyżowski will present Wirpsza’s poetry and musical compositions inspired by them. JAZZFORMANCE creates a new form of spectacle that meets the requirements of modern poetry. The form has its roots in the experiences of English-speaking artists, who have successfully expanded the formula of the poetic concert (such as Laurie Anderson and Kronos Quarter). The creators of JAZZFORMANCE also have behind them successes with fusion of literature and music: the Oleś-Skolias-Krzyżowski cooperative with the poems of Constantin P. Cavafy, and Winter Planet, a literary-musical performance based on the world of Chilean poet Enrique Winter.Wirpsza’s language experiments were an inspiration for jazz musicians Marcin Oleś, Bartłomiej Oleś, Piotr Orzechowski and actor Radosław Krzyżowski, whose art is based on the game of associations. The selection of Wirpsza’s poems by musicians of the young generation shows how deeply seated his poetry is in modern contexts. Wirpsza is worth “discovering” also because the scale of his works is inversely proportional to the position that the poet, who shares the formal class with Karpowicz and Barańczak, holds in our cultural landscape. Concert: “Wirpsza: The coherence of the world” will be presented on the last day of the festival.Tickets for the “Jazzformance” concert will be made available on the 13th of May at 10:00 a.m. at seven InfoKrakow points located at Powiśle 11, ICE Krakow at Konopnicka 17, Cloth Hall, Józefa 7, Wyspiański Pavilion, Szpitalna 25, Św. Jana 2 and at <a href=\"\\\\\\"http://www.eventim.pl/\\\\\\"\">www.eventim.pl</a>. Tickets cost 25 PLN.
