Podlasie Opera and Philharmonic Choir

The Podlasie Opera and Philharmonic Choir is a vibrant ensemble rooted in Białystok, Poland, serving as the choral backbone of the Podlasie Opera and Philharmonic institution. Known for blending operatic grandeur with rich choral traditions, they champion both classic and contemporary Polish composers—like Stanisław Moniuszko, whose witty one-act opera *Verbum nobile* they’ve recorded, and Krzysztof Penderecki, whose haunting *Powiało na mnie morze snów…* showcases their versatility. Their repertoire stretches from lush operas (Verdi’s *Il Corsaro*) to sacred works (Nowowiejski’s *Quo Vadis* and Kilar’s *Missa pro pace*), often highlighting Poland’s musical legacy with pieces such as Zygmunt Stojowski’s patriotic *Prayer for Poland*. Whether reviving 19th-century gems or breathing life into modern compositions, this choir brings warmth and precision to every performance, embodying Podlasie’s thriving cultural spirit.
