Explorations of sound spaces and memory – coded in individual and communal musical consciousness – are two interlocking lead themes in the concert. The spectral and partly heterophonic Umbrae by Kwieciński, written by a composer at a very early age, create a fascinating sphere of microtonally glistening shadows, seducing simultaneously with ecstatic rhythmic obsessiveness. Quintetto per archi by Krzysztof Penderecki, a transcript of his III Kwartet smyczkowy, is the composer's aural diary, recollections of Hutsul melodies of his childhood, played on a violin by his father who came from Rohatyn. Motifs taken from musical traditions are also the basis for Five Folk Melodies by Witold Lutosławski and Votive by Roxanna Panufnik  with a Sephardic melody of prayer Kol nidre, written to commemorate Pamela Majaro – a British pianist, sculptor and photographer.
