Polish pianist Michal Korzistka, Professor of Musical Arts at the University of Silesia, Poland is coming to Austin! Known for his deep interpretative skills, Korzistka will perform a program that includes the timeless masterpieces of celebrated Polish composers Frédéric Chopin and Karol Szymanowski and lesser-known gems from the classical repertoire of contemporary composer Jacek Glenc.

Korzistka’s program promises selections from Chopin’s Etudes, Scherzos, and Ballads, Szymanowski’s Scheherazade from his piano works Masques, and selections from Glenc’s “20 Piano Pieces” and Preludes. Korzistka’s reputation as a wonderful pianist and educator ensures a performance of exceptional quality and insight.
