Ada Witczyk: Building a Repertoire

I was fascinated to speak with Ada Witczyk, who does a niche thing - contemporary music on a baroque instrument - and who has enrolled an entire community in her vision!  Ada Witczyk is the fearless champion of contemporary music for baroque violin. Described as 'the new wave wizard' (South West Londoner), Ada Witczyk has inspired over 200 new works for baroque violin and counting. Singled out by BBC Music Magazine as their 'Instrumental Choice' and receiving a 10-star review, the 2023-24 season also marked the release of her album of contemporary music 'New Baroque' on First Hand Records (available on all platforms).  The 2024-25 season sees Ada perform and visit the Technical University of the Shannon in Limerick, Ireland as a guest lecturer during their online music video production series "The Millennium Sessions". She releases her second album "New Baroque-Sonatas" on First Hand Records and performs a programme filled with exciting contemporary pieces on baroque instruments at the Limerick Early Music Festival. Ada's new album is available this month! Follow her at her website, Instagram, YouTube, and Spotify!    Thanks for joining me on Crushing Classical!  Theme music and audio editing by DreamVance.
