Wit conducts the Norrkoping Symphony Orchestra in this selection of recent works from the 2010s.

Reviews

“… This is a release of major importance to the Penderecki discography; emphatically recommended.”

James A Altena – Fanfare – May/June 2024

Coup de cœur *****

Jérémie Bigore – Classica magazine (France) – July/August 2024

“…The playing of the Norrköping Symphony Orchestra cannot be faulted, and Antoni Wit’s extensive discography for Naxos is witness to his mastery of contemporary Polish music as it is throughout the repertoire. The sung texts are given in German with an English translation alongside, and Richard Whitehouse provides a descriptive listening guide. The recorded sound is excellent.”

William Hedley – MusicWeb-International.com – 19 December 2023

Performance **** Recording ****

John Allison – BBC Music magazine – Christmas 2023

“… Antoni Wit succeeds in a fascinating interpretation. He knows how to make the music very spacious and transparent, and to bring out the characteristic moods of the songs clearly. Jaroslaw Brek … sings them very hauntingly with a well-controlled, warm voice.” *****

Remy Franck – Pizzicato.lu – 9 October 2023
