Since 2012 the International Festival ‘Sacrum Non Profanum’ has adhered to the mission of presenting music of the current times. Recent editions of the Festival brought retrospectives of music by Henryk Mikołaj Górecki, Krzysztof Penderecki, Wojciech Kilar, Karol Szymanowski and Witold Lutosławski. Works by these composers were presented alongside traditional concert repertoire in performance by world-class artists as well as young artists who made their Festival debuts.
Held during the second half of August, Festival programming for 2017 will be devoted to compositions by Sir Andrzej Panufnik. Concerts will take place in Poland (in the region of Szczecin and in the seaside resort of Trzęsacz) as well as in Berlin, Germany. In addition to concerts, Festival events also include exhibits, meetings, theatre performances, and other accompanying events. The Festival’s special guest will be the composer’s widow, Lady Camilla Jessel-Panufnik.
