Live Music · PIANO CONCERTS IN POLAND
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 6 piano concerts in Poland worth the ticket, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you book.
Spend 50 minutes hearing nocturnes, mazurkas, and polonaises by Chopin in a small Gothic-style hall near Krakow’s Market Square. Young Polish pianists perform a changing program, with wine and Chopin Gallery access included. Expect stairs, an intimate room, and no guaranteed biography talk.
“A wonderful experience and such a talented pianist. Would definitely go again”
Spend 55 minutes with professional pianists in the Dean’s Palace, next to St. John’s Archcathedral. You’ll hear Chopin on a KAWAI grand piano, surrounded by paintings in an intimate museum hall. The $20 price, central location, and flexible cancellation make this an easy evening addition to your Warsaw plans.
“It was a great evening for us, calm and nice place to listen Chpin.”
Spend 50 minutes hearing Chopin and other great composers in Gdańsk’s 13th-century St. Catherine’s Church. Each day brings a different program, with a pianist introducing the music in English and Polish. Candlelight, Gothic architecture, and strong acoustics create an atmospheric evening for $29.
“Beautifully played pieces by Chopin combined with the candles and the surroundings of the church made this event very special.”
Spend about an hour hearing award-winning pianists play Chopin in Krakow’s small Chopin Gallery. A host introduces the composer, offers a glass of sparkling wine, and leaves you close to the piano. The concert is in English, with Old Town Krakow waiting outside afterward.
“Excellent piano recital from a highly accomplished professional pianist. A Polish national playing Chopin’s music in the native country - what could be better?!”
Spend 50 minutes with Krakow’s Chopin Chamber Trio in the Bernardine Fathers Monastery near Wawel Castle. Hear piano, violin, and cello arrangements of Chopin, Mozart, Vivaldi, klezmer, opera, film music, and Polish folk songs, with wine included.
“It was a beautiful concert in an amazing location. My wife and I greatly enjoyed the whole experience and would happily do it again!”
Meet at Bernardyńska 2 for an intimate one-hour Chopin concert at 8 pm. Award-winning pianists, including performers such as Radoslaw Goździkowski and Maria Moliszewska, play in a historic monastery setting. VIP seating places you near the piano and includes a glass of wine.
“The pianist made the piano pieces come alive. I have never heard Chopin's pieces being interpreted in such a manner. It was not too long and made for a wonderful evening on a cold February night. The small gallery transported us back in time. The venue was not at the Bonerowski hotel that night and slightly difficult to find initially.”
Pick a genre, a room or a night of the week.
