Yana Couto & Piotr Paduszynski

The daily rush and the rush of information make us look for an outlet more and more often. We need a space where you can just breathe. Soon in Wrocław there will be an ideal opportunity to treat yourself to such a moment of respite. Yana Couto and Piotr Paduszyński will perform on one stage at Impart Centrum.

Neoclassical music has an extraordinary power in itself: it is able to reduce the noise of the surrounding world to a single, pure chord. The upcoming concert in Wroclaw promises to be just that. Artists skillfully intertwine musical melancholy with hope, giving a sense of security in which the listener can simply slow down.

The format of this evening is unique. During one event, you will be able to experience two original concerts. After last year's successes and performance in Firlej, the composers return to Wrocław to present their work on the big stage.

Yana Couto's music is a sound of nostalgia, tranquility and extraordinary sensitivity, which has already managed to captivate millions of listeners around the world.

The artist, balancing on the border of neoclassicism, minimalism, ambience and film music, has more than 25 million online plays and participates in the prestigious, global Spotify Equal campaign. Her talent is appreciated not only by fans, but also by the industry — in January she delighted the international audience at the Eurosonic Festival (the largest showcase festival in Europe), represented the Polish Association of Audiovisual Composers in Los Angeles, and recently became a finalist of the prestigious Jan A.P. Kaczmarek prize “Dreamer”.

During the concert in Wroclaw, Yana Couto will invite us into her intimate world, which is a preview of her upcoming solo album. The new album is a story about digging into yourself and finding gentleness. Live we will experience what constitutes the artist's unique style: a combination of prepared piano, layered vocals, subtle electronics and field recordings that create an extremely spatial sound texture.

The second protagonist of this double evening will be Piotr Paduszyński. Independent pianist and composer, whose hallmark has become... a music box. In his hands, this inconspicuous object regains its expressive and deeply cinematic character. Piotr is a versatile artist, which he proved with two solo albums (“Zorze” and Leszek Możdżer's studio debut “Prześwit”, for which he received the WARTY Gazeta Wyborcza award) and numerous mini-albums, including the experimental “eutymia (music for non-existing game)” created in Dolby Atmos technology.

Paduszyński's career in 2026 gained a dizzying pace. The artist has a live session at the Italian BOSCO Studio, performances at Piano City Milano and concerts in the Czech Republic. He also regularly collaborates with the leading Polish alternative and popular scene (e.g. with the Men's Playing Orchestra, Dawid Podsiadło, Zalia or the Lor ensemble).

The concert of two such expressive artists as Yana Couto & Piotr Paduszyński is an opportunity to get in touch with the sound that disappears in everyday life. If your speakers and headphones regularly host artists like Hania Rani, Ludovico Einaudi or Sofi Paez, this evening is made just for you. Do not miss this trip and give yourself a well-deserved peace of mind.
