Xing Yu: Grassschrift Nr. 2

Xing Yu’ s published work in Donemus Publishing “Grassschrift Nr. 2” will be performed at the 38th Kraków International Festival of Composers in Kraków, Poland, by Flutist Paulina Graś-Łukaszewska and Pianist Tomasz Sośniak!

The Krakow International Festival of Composers (formerly known as Days of Music by Krakow Composers and 2014-2019 International Festival of Krakow Composers) is a contemporary music festival that has been held in Kraków, Poland since 1989. It is one of two major festivals of its kind held each year in Poland, the other being the Warsaw Autumn. The festival presents concerts that include music by composers with a connection to Kraków, as well as music by composers from around the world. In addition there are workshops and lectures.

This festival has been part the cultural life of Krakow. The main purpose of the Festival is the promotion and presentation of contemporary professional work of Krakow composers (classics and professors, but also the outstanding middle generation, and the youngest composers and students of composition) created in relation to world music. This concept is realized via organization of concerts and meetings with composers. What is more, special lectures are organized during the Festival (conducted, among others, by music theorists of the Krzysztof Penderecki Academy of Music in Krakow, musicologists of the Jagiellonian University and invited guests from Poland and abroad).
In 1989, the festival was brought to life by Jerzy Kaszycki, Juliusz Łuciuk, Maciej Negrey and Kazimierz Pyzik. Since 1994 (for 20 years) the artistic director of the festival and the author of the program concept was musicologist Jerzy Stankiewicz. Since 2014 the general and artistic director is composer Marcel Chyrzyński.
