Concert description
We invite you on a fairy-tale journey back in time to royal Cracow. Long, long ago, in the castle on Wawel Hill, there lived a very musical king, Sigismund. He made sure that the sounds of lutes, flutes, viols and harpsichords could always be heard in the courtyard, the palace chambers and the arcaded galleries. Let us imagine how the king’s ladies-in-waiting and courtiers once sang and danced, and how the townsfolk amused themselves to the lively rhythm of their favourite krakowiak. In our story there will also be the bugle call from the tower of St Mary’s Basilica, the frolicsome Lajkonik, and the rumblings of the Wawel Dragon!
