One of the most interesting figures in the Polish classical music scene; solo violinist, arranger, composer, and conductor; founder of the I Solisti di Varsavia string quintet and the Sinfonia Viva orchestra. His major achievements as leader of both these ensembles have been acclaimed and appreciated both in Poland and abroad. Radziwonowicz was the first to arrange all of Fryderyk Chopin\u2019s piano-and-orchestra works for piano and string quintet.<\/p>

Having graduated from Prof. Irena Dubiska\u2019s class at the Chopin Academy of Music (1978), he took up work at Warsaw Philharmonic. In 1981-82 he was a soloist and 2nd<\/sup> leader of the Orquesta Filarm\u00f3nica de Gran Canaria in Las Palmas, where he founded the Camerata Musica Viva string quartet. In Las Palmas he also performed solo, for instance Johannes Brahms\u2019 Double Concerto in A Minor<\/em> (with Urszula Wejman) and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart\u2019s Sinfonia Concertante in E-Flat Major <\/em>KV 364. During the Henryk Wieniawski Music Days in 1987, he presented (with Karol Radziwonowicz) the premiere of Henryk Wieniawski\u2019s Grand Sonata <\/em>for violin and piano. In 1990, Tomasz Radziwonowicz founded the I Solisti di Varsavia string quintet, with which he gave numerous concerts at home and abroad (in Germany, France, Russia, Canada, and Cyprus), as well as recording for Polish Radio and TVP state television broadcaster. With the quintet he recorded eight albums, including Fryderyk Chopin\u2019s complete works for piano and orchestra in arrangements for piano and string quintet (a 1998 Fryderyk Award nomination in the category of Chamber Music).<\/p>

In 1998 he founded the Sinfonia Viva orchestra, originally conceived as a chamber ensemble, but sometimes also extended depending on concert needs. The orchestra\u2019s long-time activity has resulted in an impressive discography encompassing virtually all musical genres and more than 50 albums, many of which have won prestigious record awards and nominations, leading to numerous concerts in Poland and abroad (in Germany and Spain).<\/p>

Tomasz Radziwonowicz is one of the most active promotors of Polish culture and its achievements both in Poland and worldwide. His broad interest in many aspects of the musical art has borne fruit in the form of all kinds of arrangements of music from the classical to popular repertoires, as well as more than 150 Christmas carols and many jazz standards. His own original compositions include Concerto for Cello and String Orchestra<\/em>, two violin concertos, Fantasy <\/em>for piano, string orchestra, and seven wind instruments, Three Thoughts <\/em>for vibraphone and cello, Antiphon <\/em>for soprano, mixed choir, and ten string instruments, Songs<\/em> to Words by Karol Wojty\u0142a<\/em>, and Missa nocturna<\/em>, premiered in April 2016 to mark the 1050th<\/sup> anniversary of Poland\u2019s baptism. His most recent work, Requiem for the World<\/em>, has recently been released on CD by Polish Radio.<\/p>
