This world premiere recording of Wladyslaw Zelenski’s opera Janek draws on local atmosphere and traditional music but also makes use of the emotive Italian verismo style. This concert performance of Janek was part of a series of events in Lublin that celebrated Zelenski’s music, marking the 100th anniversary of his death.

“…The choirs, female and male, as well as the Henryk Wieniawski Philharmonic of Lublin …are masterfully led by Wojciech Rodek (°1977), with the essential local colors and the highlighting of an action that advances.This recording … is an interesting discovery, which allows us to deepen the rich Polish musical heritage.”
