About this Event

Experience the artistry of international pianist Marcin Masecki as he interprets Hevelius’ Moon map through dazzling improvisation!

Improvisation is inspiration, an encounter, a journey into the unknown. Marcin Masecki is an outstanding pianist with great sensitivity and an extraordinary ability to sense the moment and place.

He is a master of extreme solutions. His improvisations are characterised by virtuosity and a free combination of genres, often with elements of classical music, jazz and popular music.

Please note: The venue offers a variety of seating options, some of which may have a restricted view. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
