Sensuous Longing: Lucas Debargue, Gidon Kremer, and Kremerata Baltica Play Miłosz Magin

About the production

In the final concert of this year’s Lausitz Festival, virtuoso violinist Gidon Kremer and his Kremerata Baltica will once again celebrate the music of a composer who only a few years ago was almost completely forgotten. Miłosz Magin was one of the most important Polish pianists of the post-war era and died in exile in France. Keyboard genius Lucas Debargue has long been a fan of Magin’s music, and recently recorded a highly praised album of his works with Kremerata and Kremer for Sony Classical. For the Lausitz Festival, he will play Magin’s rhapsodic Piano Concerto No. 3, a work that – like his Stabat Mater – is full of melancholy longing for the composer’s lost homeland.
