Zuzanna Budzynska & Szymon Ogryzek - Polonaises For Violin And Piano

The album by Zuzanna Budzyska and Szymon Ogryzek can be considered a short anthology of polonaise in the output of highly regarded Polish composers.

Each of the seven pieces recorded on the CD is a manifestation of an ingenious adaptation of Polish folklore in violin music. As the artist herself points out, the output of the composers presented on this album has a special meaning for her, even considering the fact that Karol Lipinski was born in her hometown, Henryk Wieniawski was born in Lublin, where he graduated from the primary music school, and for many years, Emil Mlynarski was the rector of the university with which the violinist is currently associated. The album also contains Piotr Wrobel's transcription of three Polonaises Op. 9 by Karol Lipinski, premiered by Zuzanna Budzyska in 2017.
