The eminent composer Piotr Moss, whose works we have had the opportunity to present on more than one occasion, sent a kind letter to the Director of Sinfonia Iuventus in which he shares his impressions of the concert with our participation on 28 March as part of the 28th Ludwig van Beethoven Easter Festival. Here is an excerpt from it:

“These few words are to tell you how impressed I was by the Iuventus Orchestra’s performance of Karol Szymanowski’s Symphony No. 3 at the Beethoven Festival. […] The performance was magnificent. Everything was in order here: the subtle refined lyricism, the neo-romantic ecstasy and the impressionistic colour. […] It was simply a musical feast for me. Never have I heard such a moving performance of this symphony. I left the concert full of emotions. And I am still thinking about it, even though I am writing to you already a good week after the concert. Ah, those climaxes with the magnificent fortissimos of the horns will stay in my memory for a long time. But I wouldn’t want to be unfair, I wouldn’t want to single out any of the musicians. The Iuventus Orchestra, which I like so much and which has played a lot of my music, fully rose to the occasion. Please pass on my deepest appreciation to the musicians”.
