Melina Mandozzi was the star of the Saturday concert at the Lentz Villa, as part of the "GREAT CONCERTMASTERS" series. A Swiss student of Yehudi Menuhin made her debut at only 12 with the famous Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

For the eighth time, the participants of the panel discussion organised as part of the VALUES IN CULTURE series met at the Lentz Villa.

We are pleased to announce that on April 2nd (Saturday) at 20:00, we will start a new series called Jazz at the Villa. Four concerts by great Polish ensembles will introduce you to the aura of intimate jazz. However, you can find an explosive mixture of multidimensional rhythms and harmony under its soft skin. The concert of Paweł Kaczmarczyk Audiofeeling Trio inaugurating the "Duo Trio Jazz" series will be a real treat for music lovers. Considering that the Szczecin audience has not had the opportunity to listen to this band for years, it promises to be an intriguing evening with the best jazz.

The premiere shows of Marcel Mithois's monodrama entitled "Accompanist" have been taking place since Friday. It is the second theatrical production of the youngest cultural institution in Szczecin after the performance "1888. Villa of Love".

The exhibition of photographs by Tomasz Lazar – "Notes from the Void", presented at the Villa Lentz, arouses a lot of emotions in every visitor. Like a boomerang, memories of the pandemic come back. Sad and dramatic, but also quite enjoyable, even fun – as it is in life. These are specific, personal "notes" from memory.

Tomasz Lazar is a laureate of, among others, World Press Photo, Picture of the Year International, CHIPP, Sony World Photography Award, BZ WBK Press Photo, Grand Press Photo, and Lumix Festival for Young Journalism. He presented photos taken during the COVID-19 pandemic at the Lentz Villa.

On Friday, March 4, 2022, at 18:00, a vernissage of the photo exhibition by Tomasz Lazar will be organised at the Lentz Villa. He is a Szczecin native, artist, independent photographer and lecturer at the Academy of Art in Szczecin.

The concert, with the participation of the mezzo-soprano – Izabela Rudnicka and the pianist – Olga Bila referred to the idea of salon music meetings, popular in the 19th century. The works by Franz Schubert and Carl Loew, who lived in Szczecin for several decades, interpreted perfectly in the palace chambers, were warmly welcomed by the audience eager for this type of entertainment. Szymon Wyrzykowski hosted the concert.

A concert of the big star is about to take place, but instead of him, his accompanist appears on stage and announces that...

Some say that it is only a legend, others that it is absolutely true. Apparently, during his stay in Szczecin in 1831, Fryderyk Chopin himself visited the famous art salon of Mrs Tilebein. He came here to meet the singer Konstancja Gładkowska. Could the paths of the wealthy factory owner August Lentz and the outstanding musician and composer Carl Loewe cross in this then small German city? This question came to my mind with the announcement of a concert at the Lentz Villa entitled "Music from the times of August Lentz". It will be the music of Carl Loewe sounding here. So let's check if the meeting of these gentlemen was even possible.
