Music is good for everything, or about the last installment of Olivia Camerata before the summer holidays

Charismatic performances of the most famous operettas and film music hits warmed up the musical emotions of a record number of guests of our Olivia Camerata series, which has already taken place over 11 times!

The audience of the concert was over 110 people (including entire multigenerational families and families with children), passionate about operettas, musicals and film musical hits, which filled the Olivia Sky Club hall on Saturday afternoon, July 1.

The program of the over an hour long concert, which ended with a standing ovation, 3 encores and many individual thanks, included the greatest hits of the operetta, including, apart from tango and czardasz, “Dance the Night Away” from the musical “My Fair Lady”, “Somewhere my love” from the film “Doctor Zhivago”, “A Bit of Happiness in Love” (“Ada to nie wywa”) or “I will wait for you” (“Umbrellas from Cherbourg”). Ewelina Wojciechowska (soprano), an artist who performs at the Baltic Opera in Gdańsk on a daily basis, was accompanied on the piano by a renowned pianist, Dr. Anna Mikolon. The extraordinary talent of the artist and the intricate performances of her accompaniment, Dr. Anna Mikolon, will remain in the memory of our community passionate about culture and chamber music for a long time.

High culture has an extraordinary strength and energy. It carries universal values, increases the quality of life, and is also important for our personal and, too, professional development. That is why projects dedicated to supporting and popularizing it, including our own one, Olivia Cooltura, are so important to us. We want OBC to be a place of unique, inspiring meetings from which Olivia’s employees and the residents of our metropolis draw – says Monika Bogdanowicz from Olivia Business Centre, originator and coordinator of Olivia Cooltura – We initiated a series of chamber concerts as part of Cooltura in 2016. So far, 11 of them have been held. We invite everyone interested to the Camerata do Olivia, as the events organized as part of Olivia Cooltura are open to the general public.

Olivia Cooltura is an interdisciplinary project of Olivia Business Centre, aimed at popularizing and promoting culture in its entirety. Dedicated to both the employees of the Olivia complex and the residents of the Tri-City, Olivia Cooltura is intended to integrate the community centred around Olivia and serve the construction and development of mutual relations. Since 2016, Olivia Cooltura has been carrying out m.in. a series of chamber and classical music concerts, Olivia Camerata; Inspiring meetings with authors are also organized. So far, the guests of the latter have been m.in. Marek Kamiński, Magdalena Grzebałkowska, Paweł Tkaczyk, Aleksandra Pogorzelska and Anna Miotk.
