Programme
The hurdy-gurdy, nyckelharpa and celesta: we don’t hear about them every day, and yet they play so beautifully! The ones we will see were created quite recently, somewhere close by, perhaps a few streets from your, our home? Tenderly nurtured in the privacy of their studios, they are sometimes created over many years… Perhaps that is why we know so little about them? Today their builders will play on them along with their friends. The concert and stories will be accompanied by photographs by Piotr and Dorota Piszczatowski from their many years of expeditions to the instrument makers.
