It is with great pleasure that we inform that Jan Łukaszewski, the director of Polski Chór Kameralny, has received the Golden Fryderyk Award of the Polish recording industry for his outstanding artistic achievements. The accolade is all the more noteworthy that it went for the first time to a representative of choral music. Previous recipients of the Golden Fryderyk Award, which was launched in 1999, have included composers Wojciech Kilar, Henryk Mikołaj Górecki, and Krzysztof Penderecki; conductors Jerzy Maksymiuk and Agnieszka Duczmal, opera singer Bernard Ładysz, and pianist Piotr Paleczny.

 

A CD "Józef Zeidler - Vespers" recorded by Polski Chór Kameralny for the DUX label was nominated for the Fryderyk Award in the ‘Oratorio and Opera Music’ category. It was a live recording made during the 14th "Musica Sacromontana" Festival of Oratorio Music in 2019.
