Antoni Wit in conversation with Krzysztof Polonek
Antoni Wit conducts Penderecki’s “St Luke Passion”
More than almost any other composer of the second half of the 20th century, Krzysztof Penderecki represents the fusion of modernism and expressiveness. A key work in this sense is his St Luke Passion, which contributed significantly to Penderecki’s fame today and which is conducted here by Antoni Wit, a student of the composer himself.
