The KBF, the organiser of ICE Classic: Jakub Józef Orliński concert planned for 16 December 2020 roku at the ICE Kraków Congress Centre, is very sorry to inform that the event has been cncelled due to the pandemic restrictions introduced by the government and the inability to reschedule.
Jakub Józef Orliński is one of the greatest discoveries in the classical music world in recent years. Polish countertenor gets worldwide acclaim and performs with the brightest stars of the operatic scene. He brings together the world of classical music and the pop culture by pairing a career in opera with breakdancing, by a "Vogue" cover photo and "The new Yorker's" article: Millennial Countertenor Pop-Star. In November 2019, he released his second album Facce d’amore – the repertoire which he will also present during the Kraków concert.
