Janusz Wawrowski’s album Phoenix presents the mysterious violin concerto of the 20th century Polish composer Ludomir Różycki, alongside Tchaikovsky's beloved masterpiece, with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Grzegorz Nowak. Discover: https://w.lnk.to/phoenixLY

While Tchaikovsky's violin concerto remains one of the world's favorites, the Różycki was never performed in the composer’s lifetime. For years, the elements of the score lay buried in a suitcase in the garden of Różycki’s deserted and ruined house in Warsaw, where he hid it before escaping with his family during The Warsaw Uprising in 1944. The buried suitcase was later discovered, after Różycki's death, by construction workers clearing the ruins of his house, and the scores that it contained found their way to the archives of Poland’s National Library.

As Janusz explains, "It was some years ago that I first encountered fragments of the manuscript of Ludomir Różycki's violin concerto. This wonderful work spoke to me immediately, and the thought was planted in my head that, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, it should be reborn and enjoyed by audiences around the world."
