Candlelit Chopin piano recital in Krakow’s Bernardine Monastery, 1 hour of award-winning performances and included prosecco.

A 1-hour Chopin piano concert in Krakow’s Chopin Gallery with a glass of wine, followed by a nighttime stroll in Old Town.
“If you like listening to a classical pianist then this is a great experience. The pianist was brilliant and had learnt all the pieces by heart as there was no sheets of music for his use. You couldn’t help but admire his skills! For us the Prosecco wasn’t at all nice!”
One-hour Krakow Christmas concert in a 15th-century hall with the Royal Chamber Orchestra, plus a glass of wine.
“Fabulous festive music from very talented musicians! Highly recommended !”
A one-hour Chopin piano concert in Krakow’s Bernardine monastery, with VIP or regular seating, optional wine, and strict music-hall rules.
“The gallery is a little tricky to find but we searched it out beforehand so that we were able to straight there. It was a second floor small room, intimate but accoustically good. Drinks of prosecco beforehand and then a short warm-up pianist who was excellent. The main performer had little to say about any of the pieces, but was exceptionally talented in an hour long performance of a varied and non-stereotyped pieces. All in all a very worthwhile evening though short.”
Step into a 15th-century Krakow tenement for an authentic Klezmer concert, with Yiddish songs, regional folk influences, and a cozy atmosphere.
“I was a little disappointed that there was no base as the the photograph suggests but all of the musicians were very skilled and I enjoyed the music. the venue is nothing spectacular and it's the same venue for the chopine concerts.”
