Sinfoniettas / Oboe Capriccio / Three Pieces in Old Style / Serenade / Intermezzo

Album by Krzysztof Penderecki & Orkiestra Kameralna Filharmonii Narodowej & Antoni Wit & Artur Pachlewski & Jean‐Louis Capezzali

This release collects Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki’s chamber‑orchestral works for strings and oboe, combining string‑orchestra pieces with a capriccio for oboe and ensemble and reflecting his move from the avant‑garde towards neo‑Romantic and archaic stylisations. It sits within contemporary classical and orchestral genres, with an emphasis on concise forms and string textures.
First released: February 2012
